Notes:
A series of direct-integration and model-expansion finite element algorithms for a geometrically and materially nonlinear elastodynamic problem are constructed and analysed. The algorithms are constructed by temporally approximating the individual nonlinear stiffness terms such that discrete conservation laws are obtained. This conservative property has a positive effect in providing a stable appromixation, and in addition allows the stability properties of the algorithms to be easily assessed. Stability and convergence criteria for the algorithms are rigorously established using an energy method.
