Hello all,
I'm trying to model the buckling of a shell structure under thermal load.
The structure is square-shaped.
The left edge must be kept straight. To achieve that, I applied MPC Tie Constraint for its nodes.
The bottom edge must be fixed so that the BC applied at its nodes was U1 = U2 = U3 = 0.
Temperature is applied as a predefined field.
However, when I run the simulation the corner that connects both edges deforms very strangely which makes me question how to model it.
I appreciate any input. Thanks.
