Nonlocal Force

In this paper, a multiscale modeling framework has been established between peridynamics and atomistic models. Peridynamics (PD) formulation is based on continuum theory implying nonlocal force based interactions. Peridynamics (PD) and molecular dynamics (MD) have similarities since both use nonlocal force based interaction. It means continuum points in PD and MD atoms are separated by finite distance and exert force upon each other. In this work PD based continuum model of epoxy polymer is defined by meshless Lagrangian particles. MD is coupled with PD based continuum model through a hierarchical multiscale modeling framework. In this framework, PD particles at coarse scale interact with fine scale PD particles by transferring pressure, displacements and velocities among each other. Based on the same hierarchical coupling method, fine scale PD model is seamlessly interfaced with molecular model through an intermediate mesoscale region i.e. coarse-grain atomic model. At the end of this hierarchical downscaling, the information — such as deformation, energy and other important parameters — were captured in the atomistic region under the applied force at micro and macro regions. A two-dimensional plate of neat epoxy was considered for demonstration of such multiscale simulation platform. The region of interest in the 2D plate was interfaced with atomistic model by applying the proposed hierarchical coupling method. The results show reasonable consistency between PD and MD simulations.
