    PLAXIS 2D CE V20.04.00 Release notes

    New in PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 4

    Release: September 2020


    PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 4 (20.04.00.790) contains the following improvements and updates compared to PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 3:

    New features

    PLAXIS 2D to 3D Converter tool
    The 2D to 3D converter tool is now elevated into a full feature, from being a Tech preview before. Various issues have been addressed, conversion of tunnel reinforcements is now possible, and a connection to PLAXIS 3D is established automatically, if possible.
    Technology Preview: Improved import from SOILVISION SVSLOPE 2D
    Added functionality to import load boundary conditions and structural objects and their material properties from SOILVISION 2D models (SVSLOPE).
    Technology Preview: Exporting to ParaView
    Some bugfixes and stability improvements have been implemented.

    Fixed issues

    A large number of issues have been addressed.

    The following Known issues have been resolved:

    • Solved: [SW-47784] 1D Site Response Analysis does not work in non-English versions
    • Solved: [379697] Deconfinement method gives unexpected results in case of pore water pressure change in PLAXIS 2D

    Many other issues have been fixed, including:

    • [SW-37368] Python scripting: removed depency of the win32 and win32gui modules for the plxscripting Python wrapper
    • [379293] Added a warning when trying to calculate the model without complete mesh data
    • [384164] Improvements on the behaviour of detecting open models in PLAXIS 3D when using the PLAXIS 2D to 3D converter
    • [408603] Using Ctrl+A in the tunnel designer window will now select all objects in this window
    • [419597] Fixed an issue in adding the the legend when exporting Output plots to a file
    • [430163] Improvements on tunnels created by the PLAXIS 2D to 3D converter
    • [432301] PLAXIS Input would give a crash when using a command to close it (__kill). This is now resolved.
    • [437673] In some cases, the legend could not be selected to be added to exporting a plot to an image file. This is now fixed.
    • [458924] Resolved issues in the intersection routines (structures mode > mesh mode) related to tunnels and rock bolts
