  • Formulations used for the HSS constitutve model

    Hi all, I am trying to recreate the stress-strain curves from the HSS formulation to have a better understanding about the calibration process. I am using the following formulation as displayed in the "Material Models" manual: Nevertheless, this…
  • Hardening Soil Model Limitation

    Hi, PLAXIS team, I'm struggling to understand what the upper limit for material stiffness, i.e. E50 in Hardening Soil Model is? I am exploring different material models for a very low to low strength Siltstone (UCS = 1MPa, E50 = 300MPa) and I was thinking…
  • Difference between HS and HSsmall

    Hello All, I have a question about the hardening soil model. In PLAXIS we have HS and HSsmall for modeling soil behavior. In HSsmall, there is a parameter gamaa_07 to incorporate dynamic behavior which is not included in HS. Also, in the materials…
  • Soil improvement using PVD

    I want to ask when reviewing soil improvement using PVD, why is the result of the decrease in time using my plaxis 2D when 2 m spacing is faster than 1.5 m spacing and 1.5 m spacing is faster than 1 m spacing?shouldn't pvd spaced closer should be faster…
  • floating windfarm anchor pile

    Hello, Please, i'm BELOUAD Rabah, student in M2 Geosciences of energy at Paris Cergy University. I'd like use Plaxis to design the anchor pile of floating windfarm for my master thesis but i didn't use it before, if someone could help me in this…
  • POP, OCR

    Hi all, Anyone please explain about the POP , why this diagram differs with OCR and in which instance use POP? Can use both OCR and POP at the same time or any conditions are there? Thanks, Nitha.
