Modeling of buckling

[poriya]

Im responsible for design of pressure vessels, in a case of modeling of support skirt and possibility of buckling, I was wondering if it is possible to perform a buckling analyses in conjuction with seismic analyses, which performed using response spectrum.

thankyou in advance.

Sounds good to me. Skirts are to be designed to "good structural engineering practices".
