The finite element method is a well-established method for the numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs), both linear and nonlinear. However, the repeated reassemblage of finite element matrices for nonlinear PDEs is frequently pointed out as one of the bottlenecks in the computations. The second bottleneck being the large and numerous linear systems to be solved arising from the use of Newton's method to solve nonlinear systems of equations. In this paper, we will address the first issue. We will see how under mild assumptions the assemblage procedure may be rewritten using a completely loop-free algorithm. Our approach leads to a small matrix-matrix multiplication for which we may count on highly optimized algorithms.
