I am new to Ansys and I am trying to simulate buckling of a thin plate using Static Structural module.&nbsp; I want to use the Eigenvalue Buckling option to find out the critical load for buckling due to&nbsp;transverse compression of the plate. What I&nbsp;have come to learn so far is that&nbsp;in Eigenvalue simulation I can input unit load and the critical buckling load will be given in terms of a load multiplier.&nbsp; However, I am having issue trying to set up the boundary conditions for this problem (indicated in the attached picture). I am attaching a schematic diagram of the load and boundary conditions. It would be great if someone could guide me about the what boundary conditions to select in the actual Ansys set up.
