July’s webinar will present the analysis types available in Abaqus, for evaluating the structural response under buckling, post buckling and collapse.
Buckling is the sudden collapse of a structural member under axial compressive loading. The importance of accurately predicting buckling loads during design is paramount, since these loads are on most occasions lower than the ultimate compressive loads of the particular member. The non-linear character of this failure type, imposes a modelling and convergence challenge.
