Example from: Kjell Mattiasson (1980). "Numerical results from Large Deflection Beam and Frame Problems Analysed by Means of Elliptic Integrals." International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Vol.17, Nos.1, pp.145-155.
Animation: 1) Deformed shape of a square frame with
a compressive loading
2) Load Factor vs. Displacements
