In this contribution we present an extension of the multiscale Capriccio method towards inelasticity. This enables coupled simulations a particle domain embedded into continuum with particular focus on polymer systems. Starting from method's initial implementation pure elasticity, substitute nonlinear elastic constitutive law by recently developed viscoelastic-viscoplastic one which is able to ...

in this paper, a higher order continuum model is presented based on the cosserat continuum theory in 3d numerical simulation of shear band localization. as the classical continuum models suffer from the pathological mesh-dependence in strain softening models, the governing equations are regularized by adding the rotational degrees-of-freedom to conventional degrees-of-freedom. the fundamental r...
