Dear deal.II experts,

I have a question regarding the assembly of material forces also known as 
configurational forces. 

First of all, I have constructed my own solid mechanics code within deal.II 
which I already validated with our own C++ code. Hence, the deal.II code 
works until here.

Attached you find my results on material forces for one single element. It 
also works perfectly.

Now I try to compute the material forces for the whole structure. Hence, I 
tried using the same procedure of assembly for our LHS or RHS matrices in 
deal.II, but it fails. Do I have to take a special approach in order to 
make it work? I assume my local material forces have to be assembled to the 
global nodes, but this assembly is it just a simple mapping to the nodes? 
Since there are quadtree constraints, it will not be that simple, I think.

The successful results are computed within our simple c++ code and I just 
show them for comparison reasons. 

Extra question: Would my work be of interest for your code gallery maybe in 
the near future?  


Kind regards,
S. A. Mohseni
