  • 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…
  • What should be the weight of tunnel lining in kN/m/m?

    suppose I am using 25 kN/m3 of unit weight of concrete and the unit weight of soil is 19kN/m3 and modelling lining as a plate element. Should i subtract the unit weights and multiply with the thickness?
  • Tunnel _ volume strain input

    Hi all, I was modelling the volume expansion (due to temperature change) by inputting the volume strain of material directly. But when I consider the tunnel, I cannot input the volume strain value to the lining ( plate material), so it shows the wrong…
