Research interests

My research interests cover problems in non-linear continuum mechanics and their numerical solution methods.

Numerical solution algorithms for parametrized non-linear systems arising from finite element discretizations with special emphasis to stability problems.
STABILITY and CONTINUATION
Animation of a plate buckling problem with mode jumping
Iterative solution of sparse linear systems
Finite elements and SHELLS in particular.
Material models. Poster on high temperature material models, only in finnish
FATIGUE
