Worked examples in nonlinear continuum mechanics for finite element analysis. (Q2904675)

The book consists of nine chapters of worked examples on nonlinear continuum mechanics, aimed at finite element applications, including mainly stress analysis, hyperelasticity and large elasto-plastic deformations. The volume has been devised as a companion to the textbook [``Nonlinear continuum mechanics for finite elements''. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press (2008)] by the first and third authors. In order to keep the text self-contained, a summary of the equations needed is included at the beginning of each chapter. In addition, the notation is kept as general as possible including tensor, matrix, or indicial representations, and a website is made available by the authors for corrections, software, and sample input data.
