Dialog elements

Case list
Specifies the list of load cases that will be considered for the analysis.
Auxiliary
Select this option if you want to exclude the list of cases from the calculations.
Note: No results will be available for the case. In linear-static analysis, results of a combination including such a case are unavailable. For non-linear analysis an auxiliary case may be useful when only the results of a case combination are of interest to the user. To reduce calculation time, calculations of a given case may be switched off, while a non-linear combination is always calculated as a separate case including a load combination.
P-Delta
Select this option to consider P-Delta effects during the analysis.
Large displacements
Select this option to take into account large displacements and/or rotations during the analysis.
Buckling
Select this option to determine the critical factor for successive modes of structure buckling.
Note: The case loads are multiplied by this factor in order to calculate buckling.
