ITASCA Flac3D 7.0 FLAC3D (Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua in 3 Dimensions) is numerical modeling software for geotechnical analyses of soil, rock, groundwater, constructs, and ground support. Such analyses include engineering design, factor of safety prediction, research and testing, and back-analysis of failure. Continuum analysis can be applied to engineering design of civil, mining, and geotechnical excavations (e.g., slopes, tunnels, caverns, stopes, etc.) and constructs (dams, foundations, footings, walls, etc.) in soil, intact rock, and rock masses (i.e., heavily jointed rock). Using interfaces, FLAC3D can also simulate discontinuities such as faults, joints, bedding planes, and engineered boundaries along constructs.* FLAC3D utilizes an explicit finite volume formulation that captures the complex behaviors of models that consist of several stages, show large...

Itasca Flac2D 8.0 64-Bit Version With the 64-bit version of FLAC, models can now be substantially larger with more zones, nodes, and structural elements.   New and Updated Constitutive Models Five new and updated constitutive models are available in FLAC 8.0.   The Plastic Hardening (PH) model is a shear and volumetric hardening constitutive model for the simulation of soil behavior. The new PH model is formulated within the framework of hardening plasticity (Schanz et al. 1999), allowing the removal of the main drawbacks of the original nonlinear model formulation (e.g., detection of loading/unloading pattern, nonphysical bulk modulus). This constitutive model is also easy to calibrate using either lab tests or in-situ tests and uses familiar properties, names, and conventions...

FLAC is a two-dimensional explicit finite difference program for engineering mechanics computation. This program simulates the behavior of structures built of soil, rock or other materials that may undergo plastic flow when their yield limits are reached. Materials are represented by elements, or zones, which form a grid that is adjusted by the user to fit the shape of the object to be modeled. Each element behaves according to a prescribed linear or nonlinear stress/strain law in response to the applied forces or boundary restraints. The material can yield and flow, and the grid can deform (in large-strain mode) and move with the material that is represented. The explicit, Lagrangian calculation scheme and the mixed-discretization zoning technique used in FLAC...

UDEC (Universal Distinct Element Code) is well suited for problems involving jointed rock systems or assemblages of discrete blocks subjected to quasi-static or dynamic conditions. UDEC addresses the engineering problems associated with mining, studies of deep underground isolation of radioactive materials, energy resource recovery, stability analysis of dams on jointed rock foundations, earthquake and seismology studies and subterranean structures.Product:ITASCA UDEC 4.00.153 Lanaguage:english Platform:Winxp/Win7 Size:6MB

PFC2D and PFC3D (Particle Flow Code in 2 Dimensions; Particle Flow Code in 3 Dimensions) are programs for modeling the movement and interaction of assemblies of arbitrarily-sized circular (2D) or spherical (3D) particles. The particles are rigid but deform locally at contact points using a soft contact approach, in which finite normal and shear stiffnesses are taken to represent measurable contact stiffnesses.The particles may represent individual grains in a granular material or they may be bonded together to represent a solid material, in which case, fracturing occurs via progressive bond breakage. Solution by the distinct-element method allows dynamic stress waves to propagate through the particle assembly, which may exhibit slip or separation, with unlimited displacement, under the action of applied...

FLAC/Slope uses the graphical interface and the automatic factor-of-safety calculation of FLAC as the core of a new, user-friendly code that models slope stability problems under a wide variety of slope conditions. These include: arbitrary slope geometries, multiple layers, pore pressure conditions, heterogeneous soil properties, surface loading, and structural reinforcement.FLAC/Slope uses the same calculation method as FLAC with a simplified modeling environment that provides tools and facilities exclusive to slope stability analyses. The result is a code that offers rapid model development, proven analytical capabilities, and fast solution reporting. Users of FLAC will find the FLAC/Slope modeling environment familiar. However, experience with FLAC is not necessary to learn and operate FLAC/Slope.FLAC/Slope is now available at or below the cost of...

FLEXIBLEFLAC3D is a continuum code that is used in analysis, testing, and design by geotechnical, civil, and mining engineers. FLAC3D has a large range of application because its analytical potential is not limited to a particular problem definition or type of analysis. FLAC3D is designed to accommodate any kind of geo-technical engineering project where continuum analysis is necessary.POWERFULFLAC3D is an accurate and efficient geotechnical analysis tool that utilizes an explicit finite difference formulation. FLAC3D can model a number of complex behaviors not readily suited to FEM codes, such as: problems that consist of several stages, large displacements and strains, non-linear material behavior and unstable systems (even cases of yield/failure over large areas, or total collapse).FASTFLAC3D operates under all Windows platforms,...
