Combined linear/nonlinear stability analysis of plane and space frames

The objective of this study is to apply the combined linear buckling and nonlinear analysis to the stability investigations of the plane and space frame structures. A comparative study of the combined analysis and the nonlinear analysis is conducted with ABAQUS to demonstrate the applicability a...
