Hello,
My model is simply supported I-shape S4R beam.
Could anyone explain me, why Static Riks method with an *imperfection returns different/random results for the same analysis runned two and more times?
Let's say that I set maxium load proportionality factor = 160.
For the first time, the solver needed 13 increments to exceed the limited value.(LPF=162.69)
For the second time, the solver needed 23 increments to exceed the limited value.(LPF=164.403)
How can i get correct results?
