Class
    Foam::solvers::solidDisplacement
 
Description
    Solver module for steady or transient segregated finite-volume solution of
    linear-elastic, small-strain deformation of a solid body, with optional
    thermal diffusion and thermal stresses.
 
    Solves for the displacement vector field D, also generating the stress
    tensor field sigma, including the thermal stress contribution if selected.
