Abstract Integrating autonomous sensing materials into future applications necessitates developing advanced multiscale multiphysics predictive models. This study introduces an experimentally informed framework for architected materials, combining theoretical and computational methodologies. By incorporating stress‐dependent electrical resistivity through anisotropic piezoresistive constitutive effects, alongside considering material, geometric, contact nonlinearities, the proposed model captures architecture‐dependent responses of lattice composites produced via additive manufacturing polyetherimide (PEI)/carbon nanotube (CNT) nanoengineered feedstock. The PEI/CNT composite exhibits exceptional strength (105 MPa), stiffness (3368 strain sensitivity (gauge factor ≈13), translating remarkable characteristics composites, surpassing existing works ≈3 to 11). finite element accurately predicts both macroscopic influence architectural topological variations on electric current paths, validated infrared thermography analysis.
