  • Modelling of volume pile

    Good Morning Sir, I am modelling my concrete using volume element in PLAXIS 3D. It is easier to get shear force and bending moment through this modelling. We can get the bending moment and shear force along the length of pile using cross section curve…
  • Plaxis plot output python: setting the plottype doesn't update in the exported figure.

    I am trying to export plots for structural elements. In one case i prefer to have a distribution plottype instead of deformation. Setting the plottype from python does result in a correct command in the plaxis command lines, however nothing happens. Only…
  • Rotation of a single mesh element (triangle) in Plaxis 3D

    Dear Ladies and Gentlemen! Is there a way to get the rotation of triangles of a mesh (single mesh element)? I have dummy plates with low stiffness to evaluate the deformation of shallow foundations (slab) from different buildings above a NAT-Tunnel…
