Dear all,
I am a somewhat of a beginner. I only started self-studying continuum mechanics and finite element analysis last year. Nonetheless, I hope to solve a problem characterized by large deformations in a hyperelastic incompressible material, with the possibility of contact.
Toward this end I have been reading Sussman and Bathe's paper A finite element formulation for nonlinear incompressible elastic and inelastic analysis . However the paper was published 34 years ago (in 1987) and a google search shows many more papers on the subject, or so it would seem . As such I am at a loss as to whether Sussman and Bathe's paper is still state of the art and if not which paper would you recommend.
With Regards,
