  • Soil interface parameters

    Hello, I wanted to know if there is a way to see the soil interface parameters in the results of Plaxis. Because after applying the Rinter variable of a soil I cannot see the "new" parameters that are assigned to the interface material. Regards…
  • The E50 in the hardening soil model(HS)when using the "soiltest" in PLAXIS 2D is different from the input value

    Dear all, When using “Triaxial test” of the “soiltest” option together with the hardening soil model in PLAXIS 2D, input the parameters as Figure 1 and get the parameter E50 from Figure 2 according to the definition in Figure 3, then it can be found…

  • Initial void ratio, einit and Cc, Cr value

    Hi all, In Plaxis, the term initial void ratio is defined as eo or the void ratio represent the OBP of the soil? I think it should be eo as consolidation settlement equation relating Cc and Cr depends on the eo, therfore Is any way to calculate…
