    Introduction
    Goal
    • Show how calculation of the critical load is affected by the nature of the
    static pre-stress analysis

    2 © 2019 ANSYS, Inc.


    Model Description
    Model Description
    • 5 bodies, MPC contact between all
    • Meshed with 3D shell elements
    • Linear elastic material

    Project Startup
    Steps to Follow:
    • Start an ANSYS Workbench session.
    • Use File > Open… to browse for existing file
    “SNLWS06.1-linear-perturbation.wbpz”

    File name: “WS06.1-linear-perturbation”


    Save as type: Project Files (*.wbpj)

    Project Schematic
    The Project Schematic should look like this
    • From this schematic, you can see that the
    Engineering Data, Geometry, and Model (mesh)
    have already been defined.
    • It remains to set up and run the FE models in
    Mechanical.
    • Double-click on Model cell A4 to launch
    Mechanical.
    • Verify that the units are set to
    Metric (mm, t, N, …).

    Model Description
    Familiarize yourself with the model’s geometry, mesh, contact, and boundary
    conditions.

    Model Description
    Verify that the model is linear:
    Large Deflection set to “Off” Bonded contact with MPC Linear material properties only Confirmation: In Analysis Setting
    formulation Details, Nonlinear Solution = No

    Solve both analysis systems:

    Postprocessing
    Review results from the Static Structural (pre-stress) analysis:

    8 © 2019 ANSYS, Inc.


    Postprocessing
    Review results from the Eigenvalue Buckling analysis:

    Modes 1 and 2 have the same load multiplier—they are


    symmetric modes (orthogonal principal directions).

    The Mode 1 load multiplier (3.437) can be used to calculate


    the critical load:
    Buckling Load = ForceApplied * 
    Buckling Load = 500,000 N * 3.437 = 1.718 MN = 175.2 tf

    Project Schematic
    Return to the Project Schematic and
    duplicate the Static Structural analysis:
    • RMB > Model cell (A4) > Duplicate
    • Rename the new analysis system to
    “Nonlinear Model”

    10 © 2019 ANSYS, Inc.


    Project Schematic
    Drag an Eigenvalue Buckling analysis system from the Toolbox onto the
    Solution cell of Analysis System C and rename the new analysis system to
    “Eigenvalue - Nonlinear Model”
    Open a new Mechanical session by double-clicking Model cell C4

    11 © 2019 ANSYS, Inc.


    Analysis Settings
    Change/confirm the following Analysis Settings
    in the nonlinear Static Structural analysis:

    • Auto Time Stepping = On


    • Initial Substeps = 2
    • Minium Substeps = 1
    • Maximum Substeps = 10
    • Large Deflection = On

    Solution
    Execute solution of the Static
    Structural analysis.

    Select the Solution Information


    branch of the Static Structural
    analysis and set the Solution
    Output Detail to Force
    Convergence. The nonlinear
    static model converges after 3
    iterations.

    13 © 2019 ANSYS, Inc.


    Postprocessing
    Review results from the nonlinear pre-stress analysis and compare them with
    the results from the linear pre-stress analysis:

    Deformation and stress results are similar. Thus, the stiffness of the two
    models as calculated by the ANSYS solver are similar and the results of the
    follow-on eigenvalue buckling analysis should also be similar.

    Nonlinear-Based Eigenvalue Buckling
    Perform the follow-on eigenvalue buckling analysis:
    • Ask for 4 modes to be calculated
    • Confirm that “keep pre-stress load-pattern” is set to
    “Yes” (this will use the load pattern from the static
    analysis)
    • Solve
    • Select the Solution branch for the Eigenvalue Buckling analysis
    • In the Graph view,
    RMB > Select All

    Nonlinear-Based Eigenvalue Buckling
    RMB > Create Mode Shape Results RMB > Evaluate All Results

    Observe that Modes 1 and 2 are still symmetric:

    Nonlinear-Based Eigenvalue Buckling
    Compare the nonlinear-based and linear-based Load Multipliers:
    Nonlinear-Based Linear-Based

    The Load Multipliers are different, but remember that the critical load
    calculation is also different, as it depends on the nature of the pre-stress
    analysis:
    Nonlinear-Based Linear-Based
    Buckling Load = ForceRestart + ForcePerturbation *  Buckling Load = ForceApplied * 
    Buckling Load = 500,000 N + 500,000 N * 2.443 Buckling Load = 500,000 N * 3.437
    = 1.721 MN = 175.5 tf = 1.718 MN = 175.2 tf

    As expected, the critical load is similar for both cases.

    Go Further!
    Change the contact region Formulations to Pure Penalty, set Large
    Deflection to Off, and verify that this formula applies even if the pre-stress
    model is linear:
    Buckling Load = ForceRestart + ForcePerturbation * 

    Introduce an additional nonlinearity (e.g., an elastic-plastic material) and


    assess its effect on the critical load.
