Non-linear static problems

Here we propose to solve the following non-linear academic problem of minimization of a functional:

\[J(u) = \int_\Omega \frac{1}{2} f(|\nabla u|^2) - u*b\]

where \(u\) is function of \(H^1_0(\Omega)\) and \(f\) defined by:

\[f(x) = a*x + x-ln(1+x),\ f'(x) = a+\frac{x}{1+x},\ f''(x) = \frac{1}{(1+x)^2}\]

Newton-Raphson algorithm

Now, we solve the Euler problem \(\nabla J (u) = 0\) with Newton-Raphson algorithm, that is:

\[u^{n+1} = u^n - ( \nabla^2 J (u^{n}))^{-1}*\nabla J(u^n)\]
