Abstract
► A novel method for coupling concurrent local/nonlocal models is presented. ► The method is based on the peridynamics modeling framework. ► The proposed blended model satisfies Newton's third law and is patch test consistent. ► Accuracy and efficiency of the method is demonstrated w.r.t. a reference fully nonlocal model. ► The method is generalized for coupling peridynamics and higher-order gradient models of any order.
