Abstract: Moved by the need for rigorous and reliable numerical tools for the analysis of peridynamic materials, the authors propose a model able to capture the dispersive features of nonlocal soliton-like solutions obtained by a peridynamic formulation of the Sine–Gordon equation. The analysis of the Cauchy problem associated to the peridynamic Sine–Gordon equation with local Neumann boundary condition is performed in this work through a spectral method on Chebyshev polynomials nodes joined with the Störmer–Verlet scheme for the time evolution. The choice for using the spectral method resides in the resulting reachable numerical accuracy, while, indeed, Chebyshev polynomials allow straightforward implementation of local boundary conditions. Several numerical experiments are proposed for thoroughly describe the ability of such scheme. Specifically, dispersive effects of the specific peridynamic kernel are demonstrated, while the internal energy behavior of the specified peridynamic operator is studied.
