* Explains the physical meaning of linear and nonlinear structural mechanics. * Shows how to perform nonlinear structural analysis. * Points out important nonli

This monograph describes the numerical analysis of non-linearities in structural mechanics, i.e. large rotations, large strain (geometric non-linearities), non-

This book treats computational modeling of structures in which strong nonlinearities are present. It is therefore a work in mechanics and engineering, although

In mechanical engineering and structural analysis there is a significant gap between the material models currently used by engineers for industry applications a
