warping degree of freedom

Submitted by chinchee on

Hi,  I am wondering if anyone could explain to me what does the term "warping degree of freedom" means?  I came across this term when I try to simulate a straight pipe buckling under symmetrical bending moment which is being applied at both ends of the pipe.  Besides that, I am wondering if anyone have any idea or experience in simulating pipe buckling under symmetrical bending moment.  How should it be constrained?  Thanks.
