Nonlinear Elasticity

Nonlinear Elasticity is a constitutive theory within continuum mechanics that characterizes elastic deformation in materials by a nonlinear relationship between stress and strain, distinguishing it from linear elasticity through the absence of proportionality and superposition principles, and providing a foundational framework for modeling large deformations in nonlinear mechanics, elastic thermodynamics, isogeometric analysis, and soft tissue biomechanics.
