This paper proposes a nonlocal fractional peridynamic (FPD) model to characterize the nonlocality of physical processes or systems, based on analysis with the fractional derivative model (FDM) and the peridynamic (PD) model. The main idea is to use the fractional Euler–Lagrange formula to establish a peridynamic anomalous diffusion model, in which the classical exponential kernel function is replaced by using a power-law kernel function. Fractional Taylor series expansion was used to construct a fractional peridynamic differential operator method to complete the above model. To explore the properties of the FPD model, the FDM, the PD model and the FPD model are dissected via numerical analysis on a diffusion process in complex media. The FPD model provides a generalized model connecting a local model and a nonlocal model for physical systems. The fractional peridynamic differential operator (FPDDO) method provides a simple and efficient numerical method for solving fractional derivative equations.
