"Discontinuous Galerkin methods for nonlinear elasticity"

Abstract. In this talk we will present a class of DG methods for nonlinear
elastic problems with a solution methodology that makes the use of DG
competitive to other schemes. We have also created a stabilization
scheme that automatically determines the spatial distribution of the
size of the stabilization term, which enables the automatic, robust
and efficient solution of complex loading paths for nonlinear elastic
bodies. Theoretical and numerical convergence and stability results
for the elasticity problem will also be presented.
