Giant monopole resonance and nuclear compression modulus for 40Ca and   16O
  Using a collective potential derived on the basis of the Generator Coordinate Method with Skyrme interactions we obtain values for the compression modulus of 40Ca which are in good agreement with a recently obtained experimental value. Calculated values for the compression modulus for 16O are also given. The procedure involved in the derivation of the collective potential is briefly reviewed and discussed.
