Simulation of caisson excavation and subsidence process
1. When I simulated the process of caisson excavation and subsidence, there would be a cycle process of excavation-sinking-excavation, which is embodied in plaxis3D as freezing the soil inside the caisson and changing the soil material at the position…

Error accumulation in Plaxis 2D models
Does the error in a Plaxis 2D file keep accumulating and affect the results of another Plaxis 2D file that is developed using 'save as' from the parent Plaxis 2D model? I mean if I have a Plaxis 2D file that has been progressively "saved as" over months…
Pseudo Static Analysis
Hi there
I have a question regarding the pseudo static analysis. As per the Plaxis's explanations below, it seems equivalent internal forces by the pseudo static analysis apply to the whole mesh. Does this mean that this applies to all elements (soils…
PLAXIS LE doesn't start any module after model is picked or created.
After the model is picked in a manager, the corresponding module doesn't start.
I can check that the installation of program and dependencies went well. Is it an usual issue and is there a fix before I reinstall operating system.
I can't really be…

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…
When inputting the q value for precipitation in PLAXIS, do I need to multiply the rainfall (q) with the runoff coefficient (c) first?
