SOLVERS: Linear Buckling Settings
Description
The Linear Buckling solver calculates the buckling load factors and corresponding mode shapes for a structure under a given loading condition. It is based on the assumptions that there exists a bifurcation point where the primary and secondary loading paths intersect, and before this point is reached, all element stresses change proportionally with the load factor (i.e., the response is linear and elastic up to the bifurcation point).
