Solid Mechanics II + Material Models

This lecture covers topics in solid mechanics, focusing on material models for elastic objects. It explores inverse elastic shape optimization, continuum mechanics, strain, stress in beams and 3D solids, linear elasticity, isotropic linear elasticity, and hyperelastic models like Neo-Hookean. The instructor discusses the limitations of hyperelasticity in real-world materials, including viscosity, plasticity, fatigue, and damage.
