Information

2D Suite is a PLAXIS Software package which includes PLAXIS 2D V9, Dynamics, and PlaxFlow. It makes up a finite element package intended for the two dimensional analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering. It is a robust and user-friendly finite element package, developed for Geotechnical Engineering. It offers the tools professionals need in today’s and tomorrow’s world of high-tech building, to analyse complex projects.

 

PLAXIS 2D V9

Geotechnical applications require advanced constitutive models for the simulation of the non linear, time dependent and anisotropic behaviour of soils and/or rock. In addition, since soil is a multi phase material, special procedures are required to deal with hydrostatic and non hydrostatic pore pressures in the soil.

Although the modelling of the soil itself is an important issue, many projects involve the modelling of structures and the interaction between the structures and the soil.

 

Dynamics Module

The PLAXIS Dynamics Module is an extension to PLAXIS V9. It offers the tools to analyse the propagation of waves through the soil and their influence on structures. This allows for the analysis of seismic loading as well as vibrations due to construction activities.

 

PlaxFlow

PLAXIS PlaxFlow is a finite element package that can be used to analyse two-dimensional unsaturated and time-dependent groundwater flow. It is specially designed for use by geotechnical engineers and offers easy input of parameters. PLAXIS PlaxFlow can be used as a stand-alone program, or in combination with PLAXIS V9. This offers the possibility to take into account the influence of flow on soil deformation and stability.
