Contents. Preface to volume 2. 1. General problems in solid mechanics and non-linearity. 2. Solution of non-linear algebraic equations. 3. Inelastic and non-linear materials. 4. Plate bending approximation: thin (Kirchhoff) plates and C1 continuity requirements. 5. 'Thick" Reissner - Mindlin plates - irreducible and mixed formulations. 6.
