We are pleased to invite you to participate in the free JMSE (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering) webinar on 10 September 2021: Peridynamics and Its Applications in Marine Structures.

Marine structures are subjected to a harsh marine environment which can cause various damage types, including fatigue and corrosion. The prediction of fracture and failure is a challenging research area. There are various methods available for this purpose, including the well-known finite element (FE) method. The FE method is a powerful technique for the deformation and stress analysis of structures. However, it has various disadvantages in predicting failure, due to its mathematical structure. In order to overcome this problem, a new computational technique, peridynamics, was introduced. Peridynamics is a meshless method, and it is highly suitable for predicting crack initiation and propagation in structures subjected to different types of loading and environmental conditions. Peridynamics is also suitable for multiphysics analysis, so that the influence of different physical fields on each other can be accurately represented with damage prediction capability. In this webinar, various applications of peridynamics for marine structures will be demonstrated, including stress corrosion cracking, pit-to-crack transition, the underwater shock response of composite structures, fatigue damage prediction in metals, ice structure interactions and fracture in marine lithium-ion batteries.
