Sir, I am following this book 'Peridynamic Theory and Its Applications' which suggest that the tractions are applied in terms of body force. I wanted to apply traction boundary condition on 1D bar. For that I created a bar of 10mm length. I also created a fictitious boundary layer on left end of the bar which is fixed. At the right edge, I created a separate block to apply the body force equivalent to traction boundary. I am using BPD with horizon number =1. Distance between two material point is 1mm. The resulting displacment is varying linearly as expected but it is not matching with the analytical solution. Also, if I increase the mesh, then displacement value at the end is changing in the order of around 10.
Is there a way to use Body Force kernel properly for peridynamics module? I am attaching my code along with this.
