Coffee Corner: Geotechnical Analysis - Model fractured rock mass with PLAXIS 2D (AM and PM Sessions Available!)

Webinar Title: Coffee Corner: Geotechnical Analysis (PM) - Model fractured rock mass with PLAXIS 2D
Presenters: Giuseppe Cammarata, Research Product Manager, Bentley Systems, and Micha van der Sloot, Senior Manager User Success - Geotechnical, Bentley Systems, Inc.
Date: Tuesday, February 08, 2022
Time: 10:00 AM Central European Time and 04:00 PM Central European Time

For our first Coffee Corner of 2022, we'll take a closer look at the new Discontinuity element.

Rock mass is not a homogeneous material: the presence of faults, fractures, joints, and weakness planes influence the mechanical behavior, often more than the properties of the rock mass itself. With the new Discontinuity element in PLAXIS 2D we can now incorporate this.

In this Coffee Corner we will cover:

What is a Discontinuity element?
When would you need this?
Which properties do we need?

Geotechnical Analysis Coffee Corners are open to all Bentley users, free of charge. One learning unit is applied to each participant’s Bentley Transcript for self-reporting. To view prior sessions, watch the Recordings On-Demand.
