Abstract

Our focus in this chapter is on problems wherein non-linearity arises solely due to large deformations, often referred to as geometric non-linearity. Geometric non-linearity itself can arise in two ways, and these are best understood with reference to the simple case of cylindrical bending which will be discussed first. The analysis is later extended to finite rectangular plates, and salient features associated with such non-linear behaviour are highlighted.
