Hi guys,
I'm analyzing the the buckling of axially compressed cylindrical shells using riks procedure in abaqus. After analysis, when I plot the LPF vs displacement (radial displacement of a node in the buckle region) I notice some regions of abrupt variations and overlaps in the curve, which is...
Hello,
I'm working on the buckling of cylindrical shells subjected to axial loading. In my case the cylinder is resting on 4 columns, so there is a possibility of local buckling above the support. I'm carrying out the non linear analysis in abaqus using riks procedure.
The problem is when I...
