(12)4.5/5

PLAXIS 2D is a powerful and user-friendly finite-element package intended for 2D 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, embankments, and foundations to tunneling, 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. Simulate various soil and rock behaviour such as: dynamics for loading modeling, PlaxFlow for time-dependent groundwater analysis, and Thermal for analysis of heat flow on the hydraulic and mechanical behaviour of soil. Efficiently create models with a logical geotechnical workflow. Define everything from complex soil profiles or geological cross-sections to structural elements, such as piles, anchors, geotextiles, and prescribed loads and displacements. Import geometry and automatically mesh to create a finite element mesh almost immediately. Bentley’s geotechnical applications are backed by world-class expertise and used worldwide to support producing safer structures and environments for all. Strengthen your solutions with the digital workflows and trusted computation of PLAXIS.
