Reduced integration schemes in micromorphic computational homogenization of elastomeric mechanical metamaterials

Reduced integration schemes in micromorphic computational homogenization of elastomeric mechanical metamaterials

Abstract Exotic behaviour of mechanical metamaterials often relies on an internal transformation of the underlying microstructure triggered by its local instabilities, rearrangements, and rotations. Depending on the presence and magnitude of such a transformation, effective properties of a metamaterial may change significantly. To capture this phenomenon accurately and efficiently, homogenization …
