Non-Linear Analysis

Non-linear structural analysis is a type of analysis that considers the effects of large deformations, material nonlinearity, and contact interactions. It is used to analyze complex structures, evaluate stability, and optimize designs. Nonlinear analysis is applicable in various fields such as structural mechanics, civil engineering, aerospace engineering, and mechanical engineering.

Advantages

• Provides more realistic and reliable results compared to linear analysis. Nonlinear analysis enables the assessment of safety and stability of structures.
• Provides the means for calculating structural response beyond the elastic range, including strength and stiffness deterioration associated with inelastic material behavior and large displacements.
