Hello there, I am performing a free-field site response analysis. Plaxis's Manual suggests to set a " Compliant base " for the bottom boundary and " Free-field " for the lateral boundaries. Now, in my specific case i have an outcropping ground motion…

Can you please teach me how to input a Seismic Surface Wave (Rayleigh) wave in Plaxis 3D? I have an accelerogram. I don't know in which order to give the boundary conditions. can you please send me tutorial in .pdf version? is this correct? …

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…

I try to record plate bending moment time history in Dynamic Plaxis2d Model. I wonder if Plaxis can handle with it. if yes, how to do? is there a way to use python to record structural force time history in Plaxis

Hello Everyone, I know in PLAXIS , when we do an earthquake analysis we define interface boundaries along the side and bottom boundaries . IF I do the same in PLAXIS #D, should I do the same, Please advise. Thanks , Faisal

Hi, I need to perform earthquake analysis of a slope but in terms of dynamic forces, all I have is response spectra of matched time histories (see example below). I am wondering if I can use these spectra as an input in PLAXIS 2D for my analysis or…

I want to apply a harmonic acceleraction of 5m/s2 having a frequency of 20 Hz at the bottom of my model as a shaking table. how can i apply that.

I have done a model of the hollow pile using embedded beam elements and trying to do earthquake analysis using the free field. I am encountering error code 40. also, I am unable to open output for this analysis, it's showing an error application. I also…

I have modelled one combined piled raft foundation using raft as plate and pile as embedded beam element and applied one sinusoidal loading with frequency 1 Hz and acceleration amplitude 1 m/s2 for 30 second interval at the soil model base in surface…

Hello, Good afternoon. I am working on my Master's dissertation with Liquefaction Analysis from Earthquake Loading and I have three questions about my modeling. 1) What should be the correct dynamic boundaries to use on this modeling? I am simulating…

Dear experts , I have this case "dynamic soil-structure interaction under earthquake " as illustrated in the figure below . When I want to obtain the maximum lateral displacement of structure there is two option 1- find the maximum difference…

Is there any method to apply earthquake loading on buried structures other than applying earthquake record via dynamic analysis? I meant methods like HASHSH* method that are static loading instead of time history. i want to design an underground structure…
