  • Hoek-Brown - pore pressure and Safety Factor

    Hello everyone, My first question here in the forum! I'm modeling a set of foundations on weathered granite and I'm using the Hoek-Brown (HB) model. Everything in the material model works perfectly fine, however, three questions regarding the material…
  • How to create stone column in PLAXIS 2D v21 under embankment loading ?

    In PLAXIS V20,V21 and V22 there is included PVD drain. But How can I simulate Stone column in PLAXIS 2D v21 ?
  • How do i model footing to measure the bearing capacity and consolidation using PLAXIS 3D V21

    Hello. I am new to PLAXIS 3d V21. I have been learning PLAXIS 3D V20 which seemed to be much simpler than the current V21. I wanted to design a shallow footing setting on the ground surface. I want to measure the bearing capacity of the ground and…
  • Floating windfarm anchor pile design

    #PREdesign #Firstdesign #not-final-design Hey, I'd like to back to give additional informations about my last question. As i have already said, i'm geologist, student in M2 geosciences for energy at Paris Cergy University. For my master thesis,…
  • Large Displacement in Consolidation Phase

    Greetings to whoever reading this, I'm modeling construction of a pre-loading embankment on soft soil, to be improved by pre-loading and PVD's, to get the ultimate consolidation settlement and the time needed for it under the effect of the embankment…
  • Pore pressure versus effective stresses in deep excavations

    Hello everyone What the best method to check in PLAXIS 2D the correct design of a deep excavation (with sheet pile wall for example) if we have a high water level outside? I mean how we can check that pore pressure are lower than effective stresses…
