Results of a calculation: Deformation fields |
This example demonstrates our ability to model complicated structures both in terms of the Civil Engineering structure and the Foundation-Structure and Mechanical Effort-Structure interactions.
Plaxis :
PLAXIS is a non-linear non-standard elastoplasticity analysis tool (5 parameters) with pore pressure considerations. PLAXIS is designed for 2D problems, plane deformation, or plane stresses. The elasto-plastic model allows calculations of displacements, stress conditions, limit loads and the evaluation of safety coefficients with respect to stability. PLAXIS allows the simulation of construction and excavation operations, which leads to a realistic evaluation of constraints and displacements.
