Hi all, Any idea how to model this one in Plaxis 2D and what type of analyses are needed to do for stability check of the slope proteced by geo-cell and having surface and horizontal drains? Thanks.

Hi all, I modeled a drain with a normal behavior (starting from y=15m to y=12m). I provided the groundwater head of the drain as h=12m. I did the steady state flow analysis and thought the groundwater would be drawdown to h=12m from h=15m. But in the…

Which of the above analyses is better for finding the variation of excess pore pressure with radial distance from a line drain?

I installed a PVD (line drain) on MCC soil model and completed a consolidation analysis. In the output, the excess pore pressure at the drain is non-zero. I have used very fine mesh for this study, taking the smallest element as possible. How can I make…

Hi all, I need to provide the diameter, length and distance of the weep hole in the retaining wall. For that reason I used flow analysis by providing a retaining wall and drain but water flow around the retaining wall not through the drain, Can anyone…

If the Water table is very deep or no water table such that it doesn't affect the behavior of deep excavation (with diaphragm wall) and the soil is clayey type. If one time I used the undrained A condition and another time drain condition (Long term situation…

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…

In Plaxis v20 2D, How to modify PVD specification?

Hello, I am not quite sure how should I calculate the total discharge in a line drain on plaxis 3D. Each drain is divided in several segments depending on the meshing, each segment have 3 nodes with the same Total discharge (in the drain table in the…
