摘要：A plane within reduced micromorphic model subjected to external static load is studied using the finite element method. The reduced micromorphic model is a generalized continuum theory which can be used to capture the interaction of the microstructure. In this approach, the microstructure is homogenized and replaced by a reduced micromorphic material model. Then, avoiding the complexity of the microstructure, the reduced micromorphic model is analyzed to reveal the interaction of the microstructure and the external loading. In this study, the three-dimensional formulation of the reduced micromorphic model is dimensionally reduced to address a plane under in-plane external load. The governing system of partial differential equations with corresponding consistent boundary conditions are discretized and solved using the finite element method. The classical and nonclassical deformation measures are then demonstrated and discussed for the first time for a material employing the reduced micromorphic model.
