Plaxis LE coordinates of all slip surfaces

Bartłomiej Bursa
Offline

Dear Sirs,

I use Python scripts to connect with Plaxis LE 2D, and all the calculations are performed without problems. But when I want to get the results of all slip surfaces I encounter a problem because only the FOS and a maximum depth are given. Is it possible to get the coordinates of all slip surfaces (not only the minimum one) with python scripts? 

Best Regards,

    Dear Bartłomiej,

    It is not possible to get the coordinates of the trial slip surfaces with the PLAXIS LE Python API. The workaround to obtain the coordinates per each trial using the PLAXIS LE User Interface is to:

    1. Select 1 trial using the Slip Surfaces dialog in Results
    2. Use the Export Selected button
    3. This will create a new Model by copying the current Model and setting the Search Method=Fully Specified and setting the Linear Segments for the slip surface to the selected slip surface coordinates
    4. Copy & Paste the coordinates from the Linear Segments dialog

    Note that I have already submitted a feature request on your behalf regarding this. This will be considered for the future developments of our PLAXIS LE API.
