Pro/Mechanica on buckeling

[brbeck777]

I have heard in the past that because Pro/M is not ideal for non-linear analysis that it is a poor software choice for BUCKELING. I have also read this at another post and noticed that one person has commented in this way. Can I get any other comments on this issue?
Thanks,
Brian

Pro/Mechanica predicts quite well the occurence of buckling with the BLF factor, but it provides no qualitative or quantitative info beyond that. I agree its not the best buckling software bacuse of those limitations.
