**u4.51.04** Operator MECA_NON_LINE
====================================

**Summary:**

Calculate the coupled mechanical or thermo-hydro-mechanical evolution, in a semi-static or in
dynamic, with a non-linear structure.

Nonlinearity is related either to the behavior of the material (for example plastic) or to the
geometry (for example in large displacements) or in contact and friction.

For details on the resolution method used, refer to the documentation.
reference [:ref:`R5.03.01 <Algorithme non linéaire quasi-statique>`] and
[:ref:`R5.05.05 <Algorithme non linéaire dynamique>`].

Evolution can be studied in several successive studies (re-entering concept), either by
continuation (the last moment calculated is the initial moment of the next calculation), or again
starting from an earlier moment.

Produces an evol_noli data structure.
