Currently, I have encountered problems on obtaining a buckling effect of a cylindrical tube under external pressure loading on the surface of the tube. Is anyone able to advice on this?
Need advice on how to perform a linear & non-linear buckling analysis to check behavior on ovality (cross-section) of a tube.

Thanks.
