• User-defined soil material with temperature

    Dear all, I'm attempting to implement a constitutive model containing thermal variables (temperature rate) into Plaxis. The latest reference manual shows that Subroutine User_mod Sig0(18) and Sig0(19) are the temperature at the beginning of the current…
  • New releases: PLAXIS 2023.1

    Join PLAXIS in becoming part of Seequent with the PLAXIS 2023.1 release The latest releases of PLAXIS marks our definitive transition to becoming part of Seequent, The Bentley Subsurface Company, with some minor cosmetic changes and a change to the…
  • Reference temperature for the soil parameters and parameters depend on this

    Dear All, Maybe the following questions are the basic ones but I couldn't figure them out correctly so need your help to solve my doubt. Questions => 1. Why soil parameters that are inserted in any checking or Plaxis analysis should be measured…
  • Temperature load

    We want to have a look if we can also do our structural design in Plaxis. For this we need to apply a temperature load on a plate. So for i've been trying around with the thermal boundary condition, but i haven't been able to replicate the results from…
  • Thermal/temperature and evapo-traspiration law in Plaxis

    Dear I am using the Trial version of the Plaxis 3D Ultimate, but I could not find any options regarding the thermal/temperature specifications! I saw some of the examples of the Plaxis related to the “thermal flow”, “earth gradient”, “thermal flow boundary…
  • Simulating Heating and Waterflow/Drying around a buried powerline

    Hello there! We're currently using Plaxis2D with its PaxFlow and Thermal Modules to simulate the behaviour of liquid soil as a filling material for buried power lines. In our case we got field data from a ton of sensors recording the actual soil-behaviour…
