Abstract

The Updated Lagrangian method for nonlinear elasticity with contact is presented. First, we describe the Total Lagrangian for a compressible Neo-Hookean material. Next, we introduce the Updated Lagrangian formulation for Neo-Hookean and Ogden compressible materials with contact. An advantage of this approach is that at each iteration only a linear system is solved. The linear problem to be solved is written in the updated domain. Numerical results are presented: compression of a Hertz half ball and of a hyperelastic ring against a flat rigid foundation, and contact of an elastic cube and a ball.
