“…It is widely accepted that post‐bifurcation behavior can be well captured by micro‐polar (Cosserat) continuum models as a powerful way to eliminate the limitations of classical continuum in problems involving shear localization. Among the works, in which the Cosserat continuum models were used as the regularization approach in order to analyze shear strain localization problems, are contributions of Mühlhaus 57, De Borst 42, Tejchman and Wu 58, Tejchman 59, Steinmann 60, Ehlers and Volk 61, Gudehus and Nübel 62, Manzari 63, Li and Tang 64, Khoei et al 65, Alsaleh et al 66, Alshibli et al 67, Arslan and Sture 68, 69, Kitsabunnarat et al 70, Khoei and Karimi 71, Alsaleh et al 72 who adopted a micro‐polar elasto‐plastic approach, and by Tejchman 55, Bauer and Tejchman 73, Tejchman and Bauer 74, Bauer and Huang 75, Tejchman and Gudehus 76, Bauer and Huang 77, Huang et al 78, Maier 79, 80, Tejchman and Bauer 81, Bauer et al 82 who adopted a micro‐polar hypoplastic approach.…”
