How Strain is converted into Displacement (Purpose is to find the initial value)
Hi all,
This may be the basic question but need to know that.
Question => Strain is the change in the dimension over the initial one , so it is provided as the percentage or fraction. In Plaxis stress will be derived from the induced strain and the…

Plaxis 3D_How to model post-tension concrete slab that acts as permanent support for retention system?
Hi All,
I am working on the analysis job for an excavation work?
So far I have proceeded to the completion of excavation that has been temporarily supported by struts?
I am about to activate the ground floor level slab and deactivate the struts…
Reached total force Fz not realistic
As shown in the figure, the hollow cylinder, with a wall thickness of 0.4 m, is placed in the soil, and the prescribed displacement in the z direction is applied to its bottom to be +0.001 m. The resultant force Fz should be positive, but the result is…
Critical slip surface in PLAXIS
Hello,

Some questions about the parameters of plate element
I have the following three questions about the input of the plate's unit weight.
（1） If the groundwater level is -0.5m, the model has two layers of soil, the depth of the first layer is 1m, γunsat=17, γsat=18, and the depth of the second layer is 2m…
dynamic analysis of an earth dam
Hi, im doing a dynamic analysis of an earth dam and I am a little confused of the boundary conditions I need to use because as you can see in the figure my model is moving like a rigid solid. I create a Line Displacement in the bottom with my Displacement…
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…
Deriving parameters for soil hardening model
Hi all,
I have a couple of questions related to some parameters that are required for the soil hardening model. I would appreciate it if you can provide some insight.
1. Stress dependent stiffness parameter m
How do I actually derive it? I have…

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…
