Peridynamics and Its Applications in Marine Structures
Marine structures are subjected to harsh marine environment which can cause various damage types including fatigue and corrosion. Prediction of fracture and failure is a challenging research area. There are various methods available for this purpose including well-known finite element (FE) method. FE method is a powerful technique for 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 very 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 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, underwater shock response of composite structures, fatigue damage prediction in metals, ice-structure interactions and fracture in marine lithium-ion batteries.

Chair & Speaker
Department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, United Kingdom
Dr. Erkan Oterkus is a professor in the department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering of University of Strathclyde. He is also the director of PeriDynamics Research Centre (PDRC). He received his PhD from University of Arizona, USA and was a researcher at NASA Langley Research Center, USA before joining University of Strathclyde. His research is mainly focused on computational mechanics of materials and structures by using some of the state-of-the-art techniques including peridynamics and inverse finite element method. Some of his recent research is focusing on multiscale modelling of stress corrosion cracking, underwater shock response of marine composite structures, failure analysis of electronic packages, collision and grounding of ships and real-time monitoring of ship structures. His research has been supported by various organizations including European Union, Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL), British Council, U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory, Samsung Electronics, Lloyd’s Register, Babcock, QinetiQ, ORE Catapult, KIAT and Tubitak. He is the co-author of numerous publications including the first of book on peridynamics, journal and conference papers. Dr. Oterkus was a visiting professor at Stanford University (USA), University of Padova (Italy), Otto von Guericke University (Germany) and Nihon University (Japan). Dr. Oterkus is an associate editor of Journal of Peridynamics and Nonlocal Modeling (Springer), ASME Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology, and Sustainable Marine Structures (NASS). He is also an academic editor of Shock and Vibration and subject editor of Journal of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of Gazi University. In addition, Dr. Oterkus was a Special Issue Editor for Computational Materials Science (Elsevier), Journal of Mechanics (Cambridge), Journal of Marine Science and Engineering (MDPI), and AIMS Materials Science. Dr. Oterkus is a member of the editorial boards of International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering (Elsevier) and JMSE (MDPI).

Dr. Selda Oterkus joined the department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering at University of Strathclyde as an assistant professor in August 2015. She is currently an associate professor and the vice-director of PeriDynamics Research Centre (PDRC). She received her PhD degree from the University of Arizona in mechanical engineering with minor degree in civil engineering and engineering mechanics. Her research mainly focuses on multi-physics modelling of materials and structures as far as damage and structural failure is concerned. Thus, her research interests include computational simulations of damage prediction in structures under various loading conditions such as thermomechanical loading, hygrothermal loading and fluid flow. In this sense, she is interested in a new method, Peridynamics, which is a very powerful technique for damage prediction. She is also working on peridynamic material model development such as thermoelasticity, viscoelasticity and plasticity. Dr. Oterkus was a visiting professor at Stanford University (USA), University of Padova (Italy) and Otto von Guericke University (Germany). She is a Special Issue Editor for Computational Material Science (Elsevier) and Journal of Mechanics (Cambridge). She is a member of the editorial boards of Scientific Reports (Springer Nature) and Journal of Peridynamics and Nonlocal Modeling (Springer).
