Buckling Theory and FEA: Linear VS Nonlinear Buckling

Buckling Theory and FEA: Linear VS Nonlinear Buckling

Do you know that buckling is one of the major cause of safety accidents that happen in a lot of engineering systems?

Why is Buckling important?

As strange as it may sound, the column behind a steering wheel is designed to fail and buckle during a car crash to prevent impaling the driver.

In contrast, the columns of a building are designed so they do not buckle under the weight of the building. Buckling in this case represents the instability of the columns under compression.

If a compressive axial force is applied to a long, thin wooden strip, then it will bend significantly.

I am doing a research project on the buckling behavior of laminate composite shells.Have you used Abaqus FEA software . I need some help with that.

Good article. I am actually learning ANSYS FEA R16 these days.
