Homework on finite deformation

Submitted by Zhigang Suo on

To the students of ES 241:

Although finite deformation was introduced in ES 240 (Solid Mechanics), finite deformation is a building block of ES 241. To review the subject, please go over a set of problems compiled by Jim Rice. If you need a reference, see my outline of finite deformation, where you can also find a short list of textbooks.

Please discuss these problems among yourself. You do not need to turn them in.

Final examination will be in the form of a one-hour interview with me.
