Abstract: In this work we construct novel H (sym Curl) -conforming finite elements for the recently introduced relaxed micromorphic sequence, which can be considered as the completion of the div Div -sequence with respect to the H (sym Curl) -space. The elements respect H (Curl) -regularity and their lowest order versions converge optimally for [ H (sym Curl) ∖ H (Curl) ] -fields. This work introduces a detailed construction, proofs of linear independence and conformity of the basis, and numerical examples. Further, we demonstrate an application to the computation of metamaterials with the relaxed micromorphic model. • Introduction of the relaxed micromorphic model with the microdistortion in H (symCurl). • Derivation of the relaxed micromorphic Hilbert space sequence via the divDiv-sequence. • Novel H(symCurl)-conforming elements with optimal convergence in the lowest order. • Benchmarks of the convergence rates of the novel elements for various regularities. • Application of the elements to metamaterial design via the relaxed micromorphic model.
