    RSData

    RSData

    Rocscience

    Fully understand your rock and soil material properties by analyzing their strength characteristics and constitutive behavior to determine strength envelopes and other material parameters. Utilize constitutive models like NorSand and Modified Cam Clay to get an in-depth look into the stress-strain relationship of your soil materials. A bonus of RSData is the addition of RocProp, a database of intact rock properties which runs as a standalone application. Check out the full list of technical features in RSData. Calibrate your rock’s strength criteria and observed stress-strain behaviors using field and lab test data and compare them against numerical simulations of the same tests. Laboratory tests and stress-strain paths of soils can be imported into RSData for visualization. Compare & calibrate material parameters by plotting predicted constitutive behavior on top of experimental data. Different constitutive models in prediction of typical laboratory tests.

    AIR

    AIR

    SiTex Graphics

    AIR is an advanced 3D graphics renderer with a unique architecture and extensive features designed for the rapid production of high-quality images. AIR is a hybrid renderer, combining the advantages of scanline rendering - fast rendering of complex scenes, motion blur, and depth of field - with the flexibility of on-demand ray tracing for accurate reflections, soft shadows, global illumination, and caustics. AIR supports a broad range of geometric primitives, including polygon meshes, trimmed NURBs, subdivision meshes, curves, particles, and implicit surfaces. All primitives are supported in their natural form; no pre-meshing is required. AIR also provides true (sub-pixel) displacement and high-dynamic range (HDR) input and output. AIR offers the flexibility of fully programmable shading and procedural modeling. Users can extend the shading language by writing new functions in any programming language.

    Dive

    Dive

    Dive

    Dive CAE is a cloud-native computational fluid dynamics software platform that enables engineers to simulate complex fluid behaviors, such as free-surface flow, multiphase interactions, heat transfer, and moving machinery, using a mesh-free Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method. It runs entirely in the browser and on high-performance computing infrastructure, so users don’t need local hardware or installation. The mesh-free approach allows for modeling of complex geometry, surface tension, non-Newtonian fluids, and transient flows without the time-consuming meshing and tuning required by conventional CFD. Onboarding is fast (typically under one day), and the software supports parallel design-of-experiment workflows that deliver multiple iterations in hours rather than days. Dive CAE emphasizes collaboration, license simplicity (one licence for all users), transparent cost control, data usage governance, and scalability via cloud infrastructure.

    PLAXIS 2D

    PLAXIS 2D

    Bentley Systems

    Every project is challenging, but the geotechnical analysis doesn’t have to be. PLAXIS 2D provides the power of fast computations. Perform advanced finite element or limit equilibrium analysis of soil and rock deformation and stability, as well as soil structure interaction, groundwater, and heat flow. PLAXIS 2D is a powerful and user-friendly finite-element (FE) software 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. PLAXIS 2D is ideal for a range of applications from excavations, embankments, and foundations to tunneling, mining, oil and gas, and reservoir geomechanics. PLAXIS 2D includes all the essentials to perform deformation and safety analysis for soil and rock that do not require the consideration of creep, steady state groundwater or thermal flow, consolidation analysis, or any time-dependent effects.

    EJM Construction

    EJM Construction

    Emwin Systems

    The EJMProject system is crucial in managing a project throughout its lifespan, from the estimate to the final accounts. With this system, you can import the Bill of quantities, price it with resources to determine the allowable, choose the supplier’s rate to be used, analyze it and mark it up to come to a sell bill. The first (major) level numbered 1 to 9 reflects the major cost groups such as Plant, Labour, Material, Subcontractor, etc. Every major level can have up to 26 sub-divisions (A to Z). Use it for example to differentiate between unskilled and skilled labor, major and minor plants, the different types of materials. This three-tier resource library results in well-structured resource-base reports such as allowable and variance reports. With the MasterBill you can create recurring items that can be used in rapidly pricing a tender. A MasterBill can be a collection of resources that are commonly used together such as sand and cement to form mortar.

    ProHawk Video Enhancement

    ProHawk Video Enhancement

    Teel Technologies

    Video collected from surveillance cameras, dash-cams and body cams is often difficult to interpret due to environmental elements such as darkness, glare, fog or other environmental conditions. Prohawk’s advanced algorithms work at the pixel level, frame by frame, in real time to improve both recorded and live streams. Command and control in the battlefield rely on accurate and actionable intelligence. This now includes an increasing volume of data from video captured in the field via aerial and ground surveillance systems, all of which must be analyzed efficiently and effectively. When these systems encounter dust, smoke or other airborne particles (mainstays of many battlefield environments), the ability to make informed decisions is severely impaired.
