We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi

Perhaps running a nonlinear analysis using the static system as here (wrinkling/buckling of plate) – perhaps needs a quasi-static, and or nonlinear stabilization (search in the help manual or here in the forum for these 2 words – they aid with convergence when parts buckle or wrinkle, say for a thin sheet of metal). See here for such an analysis

Or use instead LS-Dyna and explicit dynamics for your analysis:

Hope this helps.
