PLAXIS LE

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.

DeepEX is a powerful, advanced geotechnical application for the design and analysis of deep excavation projects. It enables engineers to perform structural and geotechnical design of any deep excavation model in one package, supporting wall types such as soldier piles, secant/tangent piles, sheet piles, and diaphragm walls, multiple support systems, including anchored walls, braced excavations with struts or rakers, top-down excavations with slabs and deadman walls, and allows modelling in 2D or full 3D. It supports various analysis methods, including limit equilibrium, non-linear (using elastoplastic Winkler springs) and finite element analysis; it integrates both structural and geotechnical checks, works with international steel member databases and design codes, offers automated workflows for rapid modelling (including voice-command entry and model wizards), and can export drawings and sketches or immersive 3D visualizations.
