  • NATM Tunnel Analysis in Plaxis 3D calculation error

    I am doing a NATM Tunnel Analysis in Plaxis 3D, but when everything is finished and the calculations are given, it shows a problem in phase 01 like this. (Soil body seems to collapse. Please inspect Output results. [Error code: 101] ) What is the reason…
  • Modelling of volume pile

    Good Morning Sir, I am modelling my concrete using volume element in PLAXIS 3D. It is easier to get shear force and bending moment through this modelling. We can get the bending moment and shear force along the length of pile using cross section curve…
  • Consolidation or Fully coupled flow deformation for excess pore pressure variation due to line drain

    Which of the above analyses is better for finding the variation of excess pore pressure with radial distance from a line drain?
  • The related problems of controlled caisson

    As shown in the picture, I am simulating a suspended caisson, and I want to obtain a suspension force that will keep the caisson stationary at any depth. At present, my method is to add line displacement at the bottom of the caisson, but if I specify…

    I sent you many questions but I could not see my questions in the list of questions.
  • Load transfer consideration on PLAXIS 3D

    Hello, So i'm having fun with PLAXIS 3D, I have this structure which is a 3D rectangle made of steel. I got a load resultant with Vertical, Horizontal, and Moments at the geometric center located at the base z=0, point B. Point B is located at…
  • 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…
  • To those who have used UDSM - Swell Model before, How do you determine the A0, Apl & Ael Parameters?? And also, how do you obtain/calculate parameters PARALLEL TO BENDING & NORMAL TO BENDING PLANE? In this case,  Et, Ep, vpt , vtt .... Any referen

  • Lines overlap

    Hello, I am designing a cantilever soldier pile as shown in the image. The soldier pile has an embedded length of "D" in concrete and an exposed length of "H-D". The soldier pile has a given section of W 18x32. I plan to approach the problem with…
  • plate properties (PLAXIS 2d vs PLAXIS 3D)

    Hello, I have a question about the plate properties in PLAXIS. In 2D, there is a specific input as "unit weight (w)" and in 3D, there is another specific unit weight as " unit weight (gamma)". I know how to get the unit weight for PLAXIS 3D but for…
  • Lines overlap

    Hello, I am designing a cantilever soldier pile as shown in the image. The soldier pile has an embedded length of "D" in concrete and an exposed length of "H-D". The soldier pile has a given section of W 18x32. I know Plaxis does not has a provision…
  • Providing interface to cylindrical volume Deep Mixed column

    Hello, I am doing PLASXIS 3D analysis for the Deep Mixed (DM) column installed in soft soil under the embankment load. DM columns are made by extruding a cylindrical volume and replacing the soft soil material with the DM column material. The soft soil…

    Dear researchers, I wanna to ask you about the instalation effect of stone columns, how can add it in Plaxis 3D, I'm waiting for an answer please. Best regards.
  • Using partial geometry of the building in Plaxis

    Hello everyone, I wanted to ask you a question about the simplification of a 3D model in Plaxis. Because of the great amount of time it takes to run the calculations, we have been thinking about using only one quarter of the geometry of the building…
  • Wetmuck project in an underground mine

  • Hardening Soil Model-value of power m

    We are using Plaxis to assess the settlement of an embankment on firm to stiff clay soils in which the long term settlement is critical for an acceptable design. We are adopting the Hardening Soil Model with Small Strain Soil Model and are a bit confused…
  • plaxis stress file

    I want to simulate a axially loaded pile (2d or 3d does not matter). Initially I want to apply only gravity. 1. I want extract a stress file (stress for every gauss point in every element). Is it possible? How do I extract it? 2. Modify the stresses externally…
