Each secondary node follows the main surface under it as the weighted average
u_A = sum_J (M_AJ / sum_K M_AK) u_J with M_AJ = int psi_A N_J over the reference overlaps and
psi the secondary faces' dual shape functions (Wohlmuth 2000), so the secondary mortar
matrix is diagonal; the rows join the couplings' constraint elimination in every implicit
analysis. Uncovered secondary nodes stay free with a warning; heat transfer and explicit
dynamics refuse ties by name. Tested by the tie patch test on non-matching hex8/tet4 meshes.

A supernodal LDLᵀ on the Cholesky factor's symbolic factorization (ordering, supernodes, fill,
cap and parallel subtree tasks shared through a Symbolic and a generic driver; the Cholesky
numerics are unchanged bit for bit). Pivots by the bounded Bunch–Kaufman (rook) search of
Ashcraft, Grimes & Lewis among each supernode's columns (Schenk & Gärtner's supernode
Bunch–Kaufman), 1 × 1 and 2 × 2, right-looking panels whose trailing update reuses the tiled
Cholesky kernels with L D formed on the fly. Reports the inertia; a column without a pivot above
round-off is a located Singular error; NaN is refused. Symmetric::new picks Cholesky, LDLᵀ, or
Cholesky with an LDLᵀ fallback; solve_refined adds iterative refinement. 1.1–1.2× the Cholesky
time on a 140 000-equation hex8 pattern.

Temperatures now strain the material in nonlinear steps instead of being
refused. At finite strain the deformation gradient splits multiplicatively,
F = F_m F_theta with F_theta = diag(1 + alpha_i dT) at each point: the material
sees F_m and the loops run on the thermally expanded volume J_theta dV0 (mixed
elements project det F_m), so the tangent stays consistent. At small strain the
split is additive, and elements on their linear stiffness take the equivalent
nodal forces as a dead load. The step's temperatures are its temperature loads,
or the steady conduction of its temperature conditions and heat loads (one-way
coupling, as the linear coupled step); both at once are refused. They ramp with
the load factor from each material's reference temperature. Johnson-Cook
plasticity softens at the point's temperature. Verified: free expansion and a
fully constrained neo-Hookean block at 20 % thermal stretch, full and hybrid
(exact); a bar held at its ends heated past yield (exact); the linear limit and
the conducted temperatures against the linear solvers; tangents by central
differences with a temperature field.

* Heat transfer and thermal stress: thermal materials, temperature BCs, heat loads, heat transfer and coupled temperature–displacement steps, solve.heat
Model: Material.thermal (conductivity, specific heat, expansion, isotropic or
per axis; reference temperature), BoundaryCondition::Temperature (dof 11),
loads SurfaceFlux, Convection, HeatSource and Temperature (a field in static
steps), procedures HeatTransfer { transient (θ-method) } and

heat/expansion. fem: heat conduction kernels (conductivity, capacity,
source, face flux/film, heat flux) on the DofLayout (one T per node), thermal

incompatible modes. Solver: steady and transient heat transfer, thermal loads
in static steps, coupled steps (exact one-way coupling). Engine: solve.heat,
temperature/heat-flux result fields, probes. Decks refuse heat transfer by
name. Analytic verification: slab, source+convection/flux, thick cylinder,
erfc semi-infinite solid, free/constrained expansion, bimetal strip, coupled
step.

* thermal: strains in 2D elements and explicit dynamics
Plane::thermal_load and stresses_with for plane stress (εzz free), plane
strain (σzz = −D₃·ε_th) and axisymmetric elements, incompatible modes
included; the solver's 2D kernels take them. Explicit dynamics turns a
step's temperature loads into a per-element thermal strain rate (reached
linearly over the step) subtracted from each strain increment, so it feeds
J2 and Johnson–Cook updates. Verified: free expansion in every 2D theory
and element, a biaxially held plate, an explicit free bar (ΔL = αΔT L,
stress-free) and a clamped bar at −EαΔT, capped at the yield stress with
perfect plasticity.

* thermal: trusses take the axial thermal strain; keep the roadmap's M7 line
Truss::thermal_load and stresses_with project the thermal strain on the
member's tangent (Σ αₖ tₖ² ΔT); the static solver applies them to rod2/rod3
(#38). Explicit trusses take none yet and a warning says so.
