Configuring linear perturbation analysis procedures
You can configure linear perturbation procedures to analyze linear
problems.
Linear perturbation procedures are available only in
Abaqus/Standard.
The linear perturbation approach allows general application of linear analysis
techniques in cases where the linear response depends on preloading or on the
nonlinear response history of the model. For more information, see
General and perturbation procedures.
This section provides instructions for using the step editor to configure
different types of linear perturbation procedures.
