linear strain displacement trans<strong>for</strong>mation matrices<br />

t<br />

0B NL , t tB NL = nonlinear strain displacement trans<strong>for</strong>mation matrices<br />

0C, t C = incremental stress strain material property matrices<br />

t<br />

τ , t ˆτ = matrix <strong>and</strong> vector <strong>of</strong> Cauchy stresses<br />

t<br />

0S, t Ŝ = matrix <strong>and</strong> vector <strong>of</strong> 2nd Piola-Kirchh<strong>of</strong>f stresses<br />

<strong>The</strong>se matrices depend on <strong>the</strong> type <strong>of</strong> <strong>Finite</strong> <strong>Element</strong> considered<br />
