Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>A higher order continuum model is presented, which is able to capture size effects and regularize softening in rotational, shearing and especially compressive settings. It is shown that with a minimal setting of 3 additional constitutive parameters the model has all desired properties. For parameter identification an example system of a honeycomb structure is investigated. (© 2014 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co. KGaA, Weinheim)</p> </abstract>
