Dear All, Thanks for your help in advance. I am working on mapping the color shown in the output page to the actual represented values (stress or strain), under the guidance of the color bar at the right hand side. The first thing I need to know is…

Hello guys, Is there any way I can use soil data from the SoilVision database in the Plaxis LE API? Thanks for the attention!

When I use python to setting the phases calculation, I can't get feedback on the failure of the stage calculation directly from the python interface. The fails of calculation do not stop the batch. Therefore, when I batch calculate models, I cannot tell…

Hello, I have written an add-on program for Plaxis for designing retaining walls. The program works OK and now I want to convert it to a ".exe" file to distribute it in the company. I'm converting my Plaxis code to ".exe" using the simple PyInstaller…

Hello guys, if I want to query specific information from the output of my model, such as the "radius", for example, should I use the python JSON library and transform the data into float type variables to perform my calculations? Is this the only…

Hi community, I'm doing a looping that in each execution involves changing the phi (friction angle) and the c (cohesion). For every c and phi change, should I create a template? Is this the only way? Because I need to get the values of phos and…

Hi all, is there a way in Python to get whether an item is active in the phase? purpose: looping through the phases and read the data out of every interface/plate active in that phase. something like: for fase in g_o.Phases[:]: for Interfa…

Hello guys, how do I export a template created in the plaxis designer to my python script, please?

I am trying to set properties for a plate material via Python. It initially seems to work and the command goes through to PLAXIS like this: Python: soe_mat = g_i.platemat("MaterialName","SOE_Wall","IsIsotropic",True,"EA",435000000,"EI", model['wall_EI…

Hi guys, I'm running a loop to get the fos but each time the solver opens. Is there a way not to open it? Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you, Mariele
