This paper describes the study and implementation of parallel algorithm and software for static buckling analysis.The research takes advantage of advanced serial finite element analysis code
MSC.NASTRAN as development platform
and massively parallel computer as parallel environment.The dominating computing work of elastic structure static buckling analysis was parallelized
and the parallel solver was implemented in Fortran90 and MPI.Moreover
the parallel solver was embedded into the original solution sequence as a sub-module
and could be called directly.For convenient use
the development for friendly interface was implemented.The integrated software
which includes serial pre-and postprocessors with parallel solver
can improve the scale and speed of linear buckling analysis for thin shell structure.
