Hi,
I am trying to decide what loading should be applied in base state and perturbation state while performing an linear buckling analysis as per Type 1 ASME Div 2. I understand that the base state represents the initial pre-load. My understanding is that if we are checking for a load combination P+Ps+D then the base state loading should be D only and P+Ps will be the perturbation loading because pressure is incremental load applied to the vessel. Is this approach correct?
My confusion started when I saw that the code says " In this analysis, the pre-stress in the component is established based on design load combinations (1) through (9)in Table 5.3." This line appears to say that the pre-stress should be established using P+Ps+D.
Any thoughts on this matter are appreciated.
TIA
