I am using ABAQUS Software for analysis of laminated composite plates (279X279X2.16) and (0/90)4s having 16 plies; trying to perform Buckling and Post buckling analysis using Static Rikโ€™s algorithm.

Firstly, Eigen value analysis is performed in step one, and thus bulking load is predicated.Then Eigen values are incorporated in Static Rikโ€™s Non-linear analysis for imperfection (1% of first Eigen mode,0.05% of second Eigen mode, 0.025% of third mode and 0.025% of forth mode)using edit keywords method.
