Abstract
In this article, we prove energy quantization for approximate (intrinsic and extrinsic) biharmonic maps into spheres where the approximate map is in . Moreover, we demonstrate that if the norm of the approximate maps does not concentrate, the image of the bubbles are connected without necks.
