Dear @Jason.Jonkman,
I wanna ask you whether OpenFAST gives outputs for the buckling of the tower ?
In fact, I did not succeed in finding such outputs in the Excel file named “Outlist parameters.xlsx”.
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Riad
Dear @Riad.Elhamoud.
OpenFAST does not directly predict tower buckling, but you could infer if buckling is nearing criticality by suitable post-processing based on the reaction loads (forces, moments) calculated by OpenFAST.
