Nonlinear analysis
When a nonlinear relation holds between applied forces and displacements, then a nonlinear analysis should be adopted for the solution. The most common nonlinear effects can originate from geometrical nonlinearity's (i.e. large deformations and/or displacements), material nonlinearity's (i.e. elasto-plastic material), and contact.
