Buckling Studies

You can extract only the positive buckling factors and modes for a model that you use to run a buckling study.

The option Extract positive buckling factors only is available from the Buckling Study Properties dialog box. If you choose to extract only the positive buckling factors and modes, the solver switches to the Automatic option. SOLIDWORKS Simulation does not report any negative buckling factors and their associated modes that the solver could calculate for the buckling simulation.
