(First time) Use of least-square based strains in an 8 node (assumed-strain) hexahedron. Full finite strain formulation.
(First time in a Hexahedron) Use of Löwdin frames and rotation based on these frames in a semi-implicit form.
Analysis of null-space under satisfaction of constraints (Kirchhoff–Love and incompressibility).
Semi-implicit constitutive integration.
Basic linear problems as well as 5 finite-strain examples are inspected for correctness and competitive accuracy.
