This book is organized into eight chapters. The first three gently introduce the basic principles of hybrid high-order methods on a linear diffusion problem, the key ideas underlying the mathematical analysis, and some useful variants of the method as well as links to other methods from the literature. The following four present various challenging applications to solid mechanics, including linear elasticity and hyperelasticity, elastodynamics, contact/friction, and plasticity. The last chapter reviews implementation aspects. This book is primarily intended for graduate students, researchers (in applied mathematics, numerical analysis, and computational mechanics), and engineers working in related fields of application. Basic knowledge of the devising and analysis of finite element methods is assumed. Special effort was made to streamline the presentation so as to pinpoint the essential ideas, address key mathematical aspects, present examples, and provide bibliographic pointers.
