Talk:Continuum mechanics/Motion and displacement

This is not for the Non-linear FE course

The page is an inclusion of continuum mechanics background from the non-linear finite elements course, and the opening text

To understand the updated Lagrangian formulation and nonlinear finite elements of solids, we have to know continuum mechanics. A brief introduction to continuum mechanics is given in the following. ... You should also read an introductory text on continuum mechanics such as Nonlinear continuum mechanics for finite element analysis by Bonet and Wood.
