The present work depicts the geometrical nonlinearity analysis for the finite element, PN5X1. Here, the general problem of elasticity is numerically solved using iteration method. The proposed element is passed through different tests in order to prove that it works not only for modeling sheet metal forming process but also for other large deformation problems.
