hi,
I have to perform an non-linear buckling analysis over CFRP cylindrical shell in ansys. now i am little bit confuse how to perform this combined loading in ansys.in order to buckle some impurities (pertubation/imperfection ) must be included into the shell as this combine loading is purely in-plane loading case. this impurities i was including by performing a eigen value buckling during pure torsional loading and pure axial compression individually. but this is not much convinient during combine loading.
So my quries are
1. How to include the required pertubation/imperfection into the shell.
2. How to apply these combine loading onto the CFRP cylindrical shell.
please someone get me out of this problem.
remember this is pure non-linear buckling case subjected to combine loading.
