Polygonal finite elements for finite elasticity
… interest, but challenging to model with standard finite elements. The challenges arise because nonlinear elastic materials undergo large reversible deformations, and often possess complex micro-structures. In this work, we propose and explore an alternative approach to model finite elasticity …

Variational Principles in Finite Elasticity With Applications
… be used to obtain variational principles for infinitesimal deformations superposed on a known finite elastic deformation of an elastic body.

Some aspects of the numerical solution of equilibrium problems in finite elasticity
… is to systems of equations obtained from the finite element approximation of boundary-value problems in elasticity. Attention is restricted to plane boundary-value problems involving incompressible hyperelastic materials. The strain-energy function used to characterise these materials is based …

Modelos mistos de elementos finitos para análise de grandes deformações
In the present work finite elasticity problems are studied through the use of an isoparametric rnixed elernent in wich stresses and displacements are approximated by the same interpolation functions. This finite element model is derived from a Reissner-type incremental variational principle based …

Composite Diaphragm Inflation: A Method for Probing the Rheological Functions of Cell -Cell Anchoring Junctions and Cytoskeletal Networks Within a Living Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocyte Sheet
… unique rheological behaviors, including viscoelasticity, plasticity, and the process of biological adaptation and recovery or a restitutio ad integrum. In addition to a rigorous accounting of the experimental instrumentation and protocol distinct to CDI, a finite elasticity model is proposed …

Mechanical Modelling of single and collective cells behavior
… suggested important direct implications of viscoelasticity of human cells and cell cytoskeleton dynamics on some relevant collective and at single-cell behaviors such as migration, adhesion, and morphogenesis. Other experimental studies have been performed on individual cancer and healthy cells …

Some more problems of geodynamics
… and Earth’s long-period motion. Using ideas from finite elasticity, it is first shown that both the equilibrium stress and elastic tensor are given uniquely in terms of the equilibrium deformation gradient relative to a fixed choice of reference body. Inversion of the relation between the …
