    Buckling cellular structures - negative eigenvalues

    I'm investigating buckling of cellular structures and started off with a simple two-cell case which worked as expected. I've started effectively building up combinations of these two cell units but even by the time I get to a six-cell structure I get negative eigenvalue results. Whenever this...
