Hello Yves, thank you for your answer.
I'm afraid I'm not into the topic weak form language and I'm not sure where to start with this problem. I looked at the chapter in the documentation, however I don't know how to describe a plane stress material model with it. I also studied the examples, that come with the MATLAB-Interface. There are a few examples, how to declare a material model with this weak form expressions. But I still don't know, how to build this expressions. Can you give me a approach for this problem or where I can find expressions for such a problem? Is there any literature that you can recommend?

I would not be so difficult, but as to be made. If you need one in particular and have the expression, it is no so difficult to describe it with the weak form language.

The problem is three-dimensional, but can be reduced by plain stress approximation. (to reduce computing time). I want to define a nonlinear material with the brick gf_model_set(model M, 'add nonlinear elasticity brick', [...]) For this nonlinear command it is specified in the description, that in 2D always plain strain is used. So my question is: Is there a way to define a nonlinear material with the plain stress approximation? Or is it planned to install such an option in a future release? I hope you can help me with my problem. Best regards, Moritz Jena
