Hi all and Rushan Gizzatullin
I couldn't understand the concept of this option "Sum phase displacment", Please explain using any other example (not one in reference manual).
Thanks.
Dear Nitha,
In one sentence: the pre-deformation of newly activated elements is ignored.
Consider the following:
At that point what is the actual deformation of the newly activated embankment volume? The Sum phase displacements will ignore the pre-deformation from step 2.
This is relevant to some and not all cases, such as dams or embankments.
I would say take our tutorial lesson and try to see the difference on an actual example: communities.bentley.com/.../plaxis-2d-tutorial-05-construction-of-a-road-embankment
Thanks
