Hi to all,

is it possible to make contact in a buckle analysis?

A buckling analysis only calculates mode shapes and as such the displacements have no real meaning to enable contact. You'd have to do an analysis with a local imperfection and increasing loads to determine the buckling load and to have contact in any real sense.
