Use the Buckling dialog box to specify the
required options for the active buckling study. You can also include flow and
thermal effects in the study.
Options
Number of buckling modes |
Specifies the number of buckling modes that the solver
calculates. The program calculates the buckling safety factors and
the associated buckling modes. |
Solver
Specifies the solver to perform buckling analysis.
Automatic Solver Selection |
The software selects the
best
equation solver (Intel Direct Sparse or FFEPlus Iterative) based on:
- Number of modes
- Number of equations
- Load cases
- Mesh Type
- Geometric features
- Contact and connector features
|
Direct
sparse |
Uses the Mode Extraction Routine
powered by the Direct Sparse solver to perform buckling analysis.
|
FFEPlus |
Uses the FFEPlus iterative solver
to perform buckling analysis. |
Results folder |
Lets you specify the directory to store the simulation results folder. |
