Hello,

I have a linear model and I ran SOL400 in MSC Nastran using NLTRAN which is basically a non linear analysis function. However, my model still ran and gave the answer. How is it possible because I created a linear model? I did not add any non-linearity.

I have never run NASTRAN, but as a general statement I would be very surprised if a non-linear solver could NOT solve a linear model.
