Fig. 4 The prediction from STAGS of linear general buckling for the linearly optimized specific case called “mich8”. Two STAGS models were analyzed: “symantigenbuck” and “antiantigenbuck”. In this particular case the “antiantigenbuck” STAGS model yields the more critical (lowest) general buckling load factor. The corresponding “antiantigenbuck” general buckling mode is shown here.
