    Abstract This study proposes a novel method for predicting the microcrack propagation in composites based on coupling the local and non-local micromechanics. The special feature of this method is that it can take full advantages of both the continuum micromechanics as a local model and peridynamic micromechanics as a non-local model to achieve composite fracture simulation with a higher level of accuracy and efficiency. Based on the energy equivalence, we first establish the equivalent continuum micromechanics model with equivalent stiffness operators through peridynamic micromechanics model. These two models are then coupled into a closed equation system, More >
