Coffee Corner: Embankment settlement on overconsolidated clay

Natural deposits are often characterized by a given degree of over-consolidation resulting from a wide range of geological processes and human activities. This overconsolidation can have a big impact on the geotechnical design of foundations, emba...

Coffee Corner: Modelling fractured rock mass with PLAXIS 2D

For our first Coffee Corner of 2022, we'll take a closer look at the new Discontinuity element. Rock mass is not a homogeneous material: the presence of faults, fractures, joints, and weakness planes influence the mechanical behavior, often more t...

Coffee Corner: Using PLAXIS Sensitivity Analysis and Parameter Variation

At this month's Coffee Corner, we'll look at reducing uncertainty of soil parameters using PLAXIS SensiPar. When starting a geotechnical project, engineers usually do not have much soil data. They need to make a judgment with this limited amount o...

Coffee Corner: Getting PLAXIS Calculation Results

The purpose of setting up a geotechnical Finite Element model is to learn something from your configuration, such as: How much settlement do I get? Is the construction stable? How large will the bending moment be in the retaining wall? After setti...

Coffee Corner: NorSand: Liquefaction analysis in PLAXIS

Liquefaction phenomena can have devastating consequences for human life and the environment. In the recent past, some tailing dams failed due to static liquefaction. The NorSand model is a constitutive soil model that is designed to capture this s...
