“…Due to the replacement of spatial derivatives with integral operators, PD is inherently capable of modeling discontinuities, such as cracks, within a continuum framework. It is therefore widely used in fracture mechanics,
2 but has expanded to a multitude of application fields, such as multiscale modeling,
3‐7 multiphysics,
8‐10 and biological systems
11‐14 . In the basic version of PD, that is, bond‐based PD, the Poisson ratio is restricted to
in three‐dimensional problems and
in two‐dimensional problems.…”
