Introduction to Nonlinear Finite Elements

MANE-4860

Review of linear finite element concepts. Nonlinear continuum mechanics of solids: finite strain and stress measures, total and updated Lagrangian approaches, variational methods - virtural work principle. Non-linear finite element procedures: incremental solution of nonlinear equations, Newton-Raphson method. Finite elements for elastro-plasticity. Finite elements for hyper-elasticity. Contact of solids using finite elements. Finite elements in dynamics.
