So the nonlinear buckling analysis (Fig. 1) is widely used in the engineering filed, compared between Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 , we can find the different buckling curve happening in the two kinds of analysis, the two theories outline will be introduced in this section.
Engineering introduction The room roof space structure span is 120m with double layer (partially single layer) sphere shape dome structure, the top chord part has 12 symmetric flower pedal shape structures (see Fig. 3), in which the structure is double layer dome structure, the other parts are the single layer.
Conclusions (1)Nonlinear buckling is needed in the real design engineering problem, but the linear buckling analysis can supply us the structure vibration mode and the mode can be used as the structure imperfection before performing the nonlinear analysis
