This lecture covers the application of solid mechanics in numerical biomechanics, focusing on large strain in soft tissues and stress definitions. Topics include nonlinear continuum mechanics, deformation gradient tensor, Cauchy's stress theorem, small strain, and linear elasticity with Hook's law and Lamé parameters.
