Hi, I am trying to export the mesh figure and use it in the journal paper, which requires at least 300 dpi. However, the mesh figure from PLAXIS Output is 144 dpi. Please let me know how to increase the resolution of the exported mesh. I also…

Hello everyone, Hope you're doing well. Lately I'm trying to build my models easily in other softwares like Rhino 7 or Revit 21. Sometimes I encounter some errors that I understand why it causes some problems while Plaxis3D is trying to mesh. But…

Hello, I used the Surface option in the Borehole to create top surface matching with the Filed data from the Laser image in .dxf format. But the message I received on clicking the Mesh tab is as follows. "Intersection failed with this error: TriangulationFail…

Hi everyone, When calculating the average element size, Kuhlmeyer & Lysmer (1973) suggested to assume a size of element not larger than λ/8, where λ is the wavelength corresponding to the maximum frequency f of interest. Therefore, Average element size…

#PREdesign #Firstdesign #not-final-design Hey, I'd like to back to give additional informations about my last question. As i have already said, i'm geologist, student in M2 geosciences for energy at Paris Cergy University. For my master thesis,…

When refining my mesh after checking it is clear of any issues with geometry and selecting "View Mesh" I get this: An overlap between the interface and plate section - this area of the mesh looks incorrect and as if it is folding on itself. Interestingly…

Hi! I've encountered a problem trying to model a double liner approach with two soil elements as liners. It could be a problem with meshing, which would lead me to using the plate+soil element instead. In addition I'm modelling a permanent jet grouted…

Dear Plaxis Support When I'm using dynamic modeling, I get error on the mesh generation stage. I tried the suggested ways to fix the problem. I remodeled the model using Plaxis Designer, reducing the region size and eliminating the pichout points…

Hello, My project is about construction of an embankment on subgrade reinforced by stone columns covered with geosynthetic...so i need to know what's the phases of calculation required...is it the same of the stone columns without geosynthetic? Or should…

Hi guys... Im facing this error while meshing my model on PLAXIS 3D?? Could anyone help me?? Thanks in advance 0156> _gotomesh OK !!!!> _mesh 0.05 30 15 256 Meshing failed with the following error: Meshing failed. Check your model for inaccurately…

I have a query about Plaxis 2D (v.21 Ultimate) Site Response function that can be used for 1D Site Response Analysis (SRA). When we select “Site Response” from the “Modify soil layers” menu, Plaxis automatically converts the main geometry of the model…

Dear Community, I am running a 3D transient seepage analysis. Orginally the model consisted of an upper an lower surface and could be analyzed. I then added an intermediate surface so that I can add specific boundary conditions above and below that…

Dear colleagues, I am facing a problem when generating a mesh for a simple steady state dam flux 3D analysis in Plaxis Groundwater. I am using Designer to generate a model volume and then importing it to Groundwater. The model is built with three…

Hello !! I am having trouble to explain mesh generation from boreholes in Plaxis Designer. As inputs I used 4 boreholes with footprint (xi,yi) : (0,0),(0,500),(500,0),(500,500). I gave this surface a slight inclination on X axis. When surface is generated…

Hello! I am running a model with many embedded beams and plates on top (piled raft) and when meshing I am recieving this warning, "very small embedded beam elements generated". Is it something that effect the results? How can I solve it? Tried meshing…

Hello! I have been working on a simplified geometry of a project in Plaxis3D. Now we started the complicated geometry which contains around 50 volumes. after struggling a lot, we could import the geometry. Now we have a problem for going to mesh part…

Hello to all, I am working with a bit complicated geometry. I have simplified the geometry as much as possible. I have tried different mesh settings but still I have a few cells with very bad quality. How much it might affect the results? Do you have…

Hello, I am working in a project in Plaxis 3D with complicated geometry. Unfortunately, I have the following error when I want to go mesh part: Intersection failed with this error: InvalidIntersectionResults The following objects are producing non…

Hi, I am planning to to perform Plaxis 3D analysis for twin tunnel. My computer capabilities are RAM : 16.0 GB Processor : Intel® Xenon® Gold 6148 CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.39 GHz, (8 core). I just want to know what will be the optimized number of elements/nodes…

Hi all. I have created a 2Dplaxis model through python remote scripting, including exporting displacement and mesh plots per phase. I want to export the connectivity plot, the one you get when you first click "View Mesh" which shows the mesh and all…
