PLAXIS 3D is a finite element package intendedfor three-dimensional analysis of deformation and stability ingeotechnical engineering. It is equipped with features to deal withvarious aspects of complex geotechnical structures and constructionprocesses using robust and theoretically sound computationalprocedures.
With PLAXIS 3D, complex geometry of soil and structures can bedefined in two different modes. These modes are specificallydefined for Soil or Structural modelling. Independent solid modelscan automatically be intersected and meshed.
The staged constructions mode enables a realistic simulation ofconstruction and excavation processes by activating anddeactivating soil volume clusters and structural objects,application of loads, changing of water tables, etc.The outputconsists of a full suite of visualization tools to check details ofthe complex inner structure of a full 3D underground soil-structuremodel.PLAXIS 3D is a user friendly 3d geotechnical program offeringflexible and interoperable geometry, realistic simulation ofconstruction stages, a robust and reliable calculation kernel, andcomprehensive and detailed post-processing, making it a completesolution for your daily geotechnical design and analysis.
