Abstract
Abstract Peridynamics for transient heat conduction problems in general anisotropic materials is developed. In order to develop a new peridynamic governing equation for heat conduction problems, the microconductivity (or microdiffusivity), which contains equivalent information as the constitutive equation for classical heat conduction, is determined by directly requiring the resulting peridynamic equation to converge to a classical heat conduction equation for anisotropic materials as the generalized material horizon approaches zero. Therefore, the convergence proof is built into the theory from the perspective of the governing equation. For the application of the newly obtained peridynamic governing equation, a time-dependent three-dimensional (3D) peridynamic heat equation is analytically solved with two types of heat sources, and the results are discussed. These are believed to be the first exact analytical solutions for peridynamic heat conduction.
