The PLAXIS development team is pleased to announce the availability of PLAXIS 3D CONNECT Edition V20 Update 4 is a finite element package intended for three-dimensional analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering. It is equipped with features to deal with various aspects of complex geotechnical structures and construction processes .

PLAXIS 3D CE V20.04.00.790 Release notes

Fixed issues
––––––––––––––––––––––-
A large number of issues have been addressed.


PLAXIS is a finite element package intended for the two-dimensional or three-dimensional analysis ofdeformation, stability, dynamics and groundwater flow in geotechnical engineering. Geotechnical applicationsrequire advanced constitutive models for the simulation of the non-linear, time-dependent and anisotropicbehaviour of soils and/or rock. In addition, since soil is a multi-phase material, special procedures are requiredto deal with pore pressures and (partial) saturation in the soil. Although the modelling of the soil itself is animportant issue, many geotechnical projects involve the modelling of structures and the interaction between thestructures and the soil. PLAXIS is equipped with features to deal with various aspects of complex geotechnicalstructures.

PLAXIS 3D is a powerful and user friendly finite element package intended for three-dimensional 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 tunnelling, mining and reservoir geomechanics.

PLAXIS 3D has advanced features to tackle modelling challenges in the most complex geotechnical projects, that cannot be solved with PLAXIS 2D.

Finite element modelling in full 3D has never been easier with a range of CAD-like drawing tools and extrude, intersect, combine and array operations. It’s almost like sculpting.

In this showreel, we display some models of dams and embankments made in PLAXIS 3D.
