PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 4

The PLAXIS development team is pleased to announce the availability of PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 4 is a powerful and user friendly finite element package intended for two-dimensional analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering and rock mechanics.



PLAXIS is a finite element package intended for the two-dimensional or three-dimensional analysis ofdeformation, stability, dynamics and groundwater flow in geotechnical engineering. Geotechnical applicationsrequire advanced constitutive models for the simulation of the non-linear, time-dependent and anisotropicbehaviour of soils and/or rock. In addition, since soil is a multi-phase material, special procedures are requiredto deal with pore pressures and (partial) saturation in the soil. Although the modelling of the soil itself is animportant issue, many geotechnical projects involve the modelling of structures and the interaction between thestructures and the soil. PLAXIS is equipped with features to deal with various aspects of complex geotechnicalstructures.

PLAXIS 2D is a powerful and user friendly finite element package intended for two-dimensional analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering and rock mechanics. PLAXIS is used worldwide by top engineering companies and institutions in the civil and geotechnical engineering industry. Applications range from excavations, embankment and foundations to tunnelling, mining and reservoir geomechanics.

PLAXIS is equipped with a broad range of advanced features to model a diverse range of geotechnical problems, all from within a single integrated software package.

PLAXIS uses predefined structural elements and loading types in a CAD-like environment. This empowers the user with fast and efficient model creation, allowing more time to interpret the results.

In some cases using the borehole tool is not the most efficient way to create the soil layering. This movie introduces the Soil polygon tool to show how you can model a rocky hillside.
