Conventional engineering methods oftentimes have challenges in the quantification of crack nucleation processes from manufacturing defects that are relevant for engineering component lifing. In this work, we present peridynamic simulation framework for the description of the crack nucleation process from cluster of non-metallic inclusions in aluminum alloys. Our non-local simulation framework characterizes crack nucleation process as multiple micro-crack nucleation events from individual inclusions, and eventually one micro-crack dominates. We define individual stages of the crack nucleation process, i.e., nucleation, micro-crack, technical, and crack initiation, that allow a quantification and meta model development of both the individual stages and the entire crack nucleation process.
