    PLAXIS 2D Tutorial 12: Potato field moisture content

    Application PLAXIS 2D
    Version PLAXIS 2D
    Date created 20 May 2017
    Date modified 20 May 2017

    This lesson demonstrates the applicability of PLAXIS to agricultural problems. The potato field lesson involves a loam layer on top of a sandy base. Regional conditions prescribe a water level at the position of the material interface. The water level in the ditches remains unchanged. The precipitation and evaporation may vary on a daily basis due to weather conditions. The calculation aims to predict the variation of the water content in the loam layer in time as a result of time-dependent boundary conditions.

     This exercise requires the PlaxFlow module in order to be able to perform calculations in the Flow mode

    The attached *.p2dxlog file contains all the commands to generate the model. With a Bentley Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement [GSE] (former PLAXIS-VIP) licence, you can use the commands runner to open the *.p2dxlog file and to execute all commands in one go, see also this instruction.
