Package Description
In this tutorial, we provide a comprehensive overview of buckling and its modeling in Abaqus. To that end, we begin with a detailed lesson, followed by a series of hands-on workshops. These workshops are designed to build on the concepts introduced in the lesson, guiding you through the step-by-step simulation of various buckling scenarios in Abaqus, and culminating in a discussion of the results. The 9-minute lesson covers key topics such as: what buckling is, how buckling analysis is useful for assessing structural failure, the types of structures where buckling may occur, and the fundamental equations governing buckling. We also explain how to simulate buckling in Abaqus, including the appropriate analysis steps. Additionally, we explore two common scenarios in detail: the role of buckling loads in eigenvalue problems, and post-buckling analysis using imperfections in Abaqus.
In the first workshop, we model the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a steel frame in Abaqus. This example includes plastic material behavior, adding realism to the analysis. In the second workshop, we simulate the buckling of an externally pressurized cylinder, followed by a review of the results. To keep things straightforward, we assume linear elastic behavior for the steel material in this case. In the third workshop, the buckling of a square column in Abaqus, as well as its post-buckling behavior, has been analyzed. In the fourth workshop, we examine the buckling behavior of a simple frame in Abaqus— a well-known phenomenon in structures, especially during earthquakes. Finally, in the last workshop, we analyze the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a cylindrical shell, providing a process you can apply to similar analyses in thin cylindrical tanks and storage structures. By completing the lesson and workshops, you will develop a solid understanding of the core concepts of buckling and how to effectively model them in Abaqus.
Key Learning Concepts
The following sections outline the essential concepts covered in this training:
1- Video Lesson on Buckling and Its Analysis in Abaqus
In this video, we’re going to talk about various topics including what buckling is, in what types of structures it occurs, and why buckling load analysis is important. This will give you a general understanding of the buckling problem.
Next, we’ll dive into buckling analysis in Abaqus, including which step needs to be defined in Abaqus, how to perform post-buckling analysis, and more. By learning these topics, you’ll gain mastery over buckling and its analysis in Abaqus.
2- Instructional Videos on Step-by-Step Modeling of Buckling and Post-Buckling in Abaqus
To show you step-by-step how to perform buckling and post-buckling analysis in Abaqus, we’ve included 5 workshops as discussed below.
Workshop 1: Buckling and Post-Buckling Behavior of a Steel Frame In the first workshop, we model the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a steel frame in Abaqus. This example includes plastic material behavior, adding complexity and realism to the analysis. For the post-buckling phase, we manually edit input keywords and introduce imperfections into the model.
Workshop 2: Buckling of an Externally Pressurized Cylinder Since many of you may want to analyze buckling in cylindrical shells—which is a very common case—and might not know how to handle that in Abaqus, we’ve added this workshop. With this workshop, you’ll be able to confidently handle buckling analysis for cylindrical shells in Abaqus. In this workshop, we demonstrate each step of the process in Abaqus, followed by a review of the results. To keep things straightforward, we assume linear elastic behavior for the steel material in this case.
Workshop 3: Buckling of a Square Column In the third workshop, the buckling of a square column in Abaqus, as well as its post-buckling behavior, has been analyzed. The reason for choosing this problem is that buckling is a common and widely discussed issue in structural elements such as columns. We believed that solving this problem could be especially beneficial for civil engineers.
Workshop 4: Buckling Analysis of a Frame In this workshop, we conducted a buckling analysis of a simple frame, which can be particularly useful for civil engineers. Buckling is a critical concern in building frames, where it can compromise structural integrity—especially during earthquakes or other types of loading. This workshop introduces you to the process of performing a buckling analysis on a basic frame, which you can then extend and adapt to more complex cases based on your needs.
Workshop 5: Buckling and Post-buckling Behavior of a Cylindrical Shell In this workshop, we modeled the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a cylindrical shell in Abaqus. Since in many cases—such as the analysis of thin-walled tanks—a buckling analysis is required to ensure the tank’s performance, this example can effectively address such needs.

Produced in Partnership Plan
The CAE Assistant team, in collaboration with numerous academics, researchers, and industry professionals holding bachelor’s, master’s, and PhD degrees, has developed a variety of educational packages. One of the key advantages of leveraging the expertise of such individuals is the creation of high-quality, valuable content that stands out compared to competitors. This has earned the trust of many individuals from renowned companies and universities in our team and the quality of the content we produce, which has always been a source of pride for us.
In this package, you’ll be introduced to the concept of buckling and the types of structures where it commonly occurs. We’ll then discuss the importance of buckling load analysis and guide you through the steps for modeling it in Abaqus.
Through the provided workshops, you’ll also learn how to model the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a steel structure, as well as how to perform a buckling analysis of a pressurized vessel in Abaqus—step by step.
In summary, here’s what you’ll learn in this training:
Understanding the buckling phenomenon
The importance of buckling load analysis
Common structures where buckling typically occurs
Overview of analysis steps in Abaqus and how to choose the appropriate one for buckling
A step-by-step approach to solving buckling problems in Abaqus
How to modify Abaqus keywords for post-buckling analysis
In general, buckling is a well-known phenomenon in engineering sciences with significant importance across various fields. The most common areas in which buckling appears in engineering include:
Tall or slender structures such as beams, columns, and bracings in various structural systems
Thin-walled shells and pressurized vessels such as silos and storage tanks
Compressive elements in bridges or truss members
Components of airplanes, satellites, and automobiles
Marine and submarine structures
Given its importance, engineers in these fields often need to perform buckling load analysis to ensure the efficiency and proper performance of structures under different conditions. This training helps professionals working in these areas use Abaqus to carry out buckling analysis for their specific structural needs.
Buckling is a well-known and widely studied phenomenon, and with a quick online search, you can find plenty of information and tutorials about it. However, what truly makes our training different—and what you may not easily find elsewhere—is a structured training program that not only presents all the essential theoretical concepts in a clear, lesson-based format but also walks you through the entire step-by-step modeling process in Abaqus through workshops.
In contrast to many other websites, we provide a clear syllabus and a detailed outline of the trainingcontent right on this page—exactly what you’ll receive in the course itself, with full transparency.
You’ll also get access to all the modeling files used in the training, so you can open them directly in Abaqus, follow along, or build upon them for your own projects.
In conclusion, by investing in this course, you’ll save valuable time—no more jumping between websites looking for scattered tutorials—and avoid the cost of buying multiple incomplete resources.
To make the learning process easier and more understandable, the video comes with clear English narration and accurate, easy-to-read captions throughout both the lessons and workshops. With a basic understanding of English, you’ll be able to follow the training and learn as expected.
