A linear analysis is conducted if a structure is expected to exhibit linear behavior. The deformation and load-carrying capability can be determined by employing one of the analysis types available in ANSYS, static or dynamic, depending on the nature of the applied loading. If the applied loading is determined as part of the solution for structural stability, a buckling analysis is conducted. If the structure is subjected to thermal loading, the analysis is referred to as thermomechanical.
