#PREdesign #Firstdesign #not-final-design Hey, I'd like to back to give additional informations about my last question. As i have already said, i'm geologist, student in M2 geosciences for energy at Paris Cergy University. For my master thesis,…

Hello, Please, i'm BELOUAD Rabah, student in M2 Geosciences of energy at Paris Cergy University. I'd like use Plaxis to design the anchor pile of floating windfarm for my master thesis but i didn't use it before, if someone could help me in this…

Hi, I am trying to model the loading of a steel plate placed on a dry sand bed and find the variation of the vertical stress with respect to the depth of the sand bed. I have conducted the same on the laboratory scale using a steel plate and placing…

There is no option for tying the boundaries in PLAXIS 3D. Is there any other way by which we can tie the lateral boundaries?

Hello everyone I wonder about the meaning of the Maccel value. I checked the Plaxis 2D reference manual and it says "The value of this parameter is always 0." Why it's always zero and what does it do? Thank you

Greetings to whoever reading this, I'm modeling construction of a pre-loading embankment on soft soil, to be improved by pre-loading and PVD's, to get the ultimate consolidation settlement and the time needed for it under the effect of the embankment…

Referring to the question and answer about Rinter ( https://communities.bentley.com/products/geotech-analysis/f/plaxis-soilvision-forum/212033/rinter-value ) We typically do not recommend parameter values as this should be based on data collected…

PLAXIS output program is not working. I have to select points for curves but I cant because the output program is not working. Solution?

Dear Guys, First of all I am new to this forum. I never knew such a forum existed. I am modelling a steel supported braced excavations (struts). In the project the diagonal struts in the corners are 20 metres long while the horizontal (located at…

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…

What should be Rinter value for clayey sand in case of a bored concrete pile?

Hello, while writing my master thesis I was wondering about the equation [145] of the Material Models Manual of PLAXIS, which says that the sum of the axial strain follows by the negative elastic axial strain minus the plastic axial strain given in…

Dear All, The calculation failed for my excavation stage, after inspecting the fail result, I cannot find any soil body to be collapse... Will soil body inside excavation zone "collapse"? because of the total displacement in arrow as this... Thank…

Hi, I am a newbie in Plaxis 3D. I am setting the model of deep excavation with lateral support. First, I creat the soil/existing ground by borehole only, and i set some volume to deactivate since the ground surface is not flat. And I creat all excavation…

If I want to delete the second points of the selected line, the command line would be: del line_1.second If I want to apply the same command to a list of lines, how is it possible? would it be something like this? group_1 is a list of lines. map…

Hi, I am wondering how it would be possible to analyse stress/strain relaxation in the CRS soil-test-facility in PLAXIS 3D? I am currently using the Soft soil creep model and used the optimise parameter function to match with the lab data. However…
