Standard results in structural buckling

The results generated in a Structural Buckling study enable you to determine whether your design is likely to buckle under the applied loads. Online results are presented in the Browser.

When you first run a structural buckling analysis, the Total Displacement result for the first buckling mode is displayed by default.

Note: Buckling displacement results are normalized. The legend shows no units, and you cannot change displacement units for this study type.
