Book- Peridynamic Differential Operator for Numerical Analysis

This book introduces the peridynamic (PD) differential operator, which enables the nonlocal form of local differentiation.  PD is a bridge between differentiation and integration.  It provides the computational solution of complex field equations and evaluation of derivatives of smooth or scattered data in the presence of discontinuities.  PD also serves as a natural filter to smooth noisy data and to recover missing data.
