An adaptive variational Quasicontinuum methodology for lattice networks with localized damage
Summary Lattice networks with dissipative interactions can be used to describe the mechanics of discrete meso‐structures of materials such as 3D‐printed structures and foams. This contribution deals with the crack initiation and propagation in such materials and focuses on an adaptive multiscale approach that captures the spatially evolving fracture. Lattice …
