Numerical approximation for a nonlinear membrane problem
Résumé
We present a numerical study of large deformations of nonlinearly elastic membranes. We consider the nonlinear membrane model obtained by H. Le Dret and A. Raoult using Γ-convergence, in the case of a Saint Venant- Kirchhoff bulk material.We consider conforming P1 and Q1finite element approximations of the membrane problem and use a nonlinear conjugate gradient algorithm to minimize the discrete energy. We present numerical tests including membranes submitted to live pressure loads.
