MicMec implements the micromechanical model, a systematic coarse-grained procedure to access larger length and longer time scales in mechanical simulations of nanostructured materials. As a hierarchical method, it takes atomic-level stiffness tensors and cell matrices at equilibrium for input, allowing for a straightforward comparison with experiment.
