The well established advanced course for experienced Plaxis users is organized every year as a continuation of the basic course on Computational Geotechnics.
 
One of the aims of this course is to teach the application of advanced soil models. Where the basic course concentrates on the Mohr-Coulomb model, attention is now fully focused on the Hardening Soil model and the very new extension to include the small-strain stiffness.
 
Another aim of the course is to teach the numerical analysis of geotechnical problems, such as excavations, soil improvements, embankments and foundation. On solving practical problems PLAXIS software will be applied. For 2D problems PLAXIS 2D 2011 will be used, which includes the extension to small strains and a feature to simulate standard laboratory tests as well as groundwater flow .
 
For 3D problems the new PLAXIS 3D 2011 program will be applied, which includes consolidation and new options to generate complex geometries.
