Abstract
The present paper deals with parallelization of explicit
time stepping algorithm in a general finite element environment.
Particularly, support for nonlocal constitutive
models has been considered. A central difference method
has been used to discretize the governing equation in time.
Modifications of both node-cut and element-cut strategies
have been developed to provide efficient support for nonlocal
constitutive models.
