PLAXIS 3D includes the most essential functionality to perform everyday deformation and safety analysis for soil and rock. This comprehensive software for the design and analysis of soils, rocks, and associated structures makes it easy to model in full 3D. Easily generate and scale construction sequences for excavations. Facilitate steady-state groundwater flow calculations, including flow-related material parameters, boundary conditions, drains, and wells. Use interfaces and embedded pile elements to model movement between soil and foundation, such as slipping and gapping. Get trustworthy results with realistic soil models and a complete portfolio of visualization abilities. To meet the unique geotechnical challenges of soil structure interactions, PLAXIS 3D offers different calculation types, such as plastic, consolidation, and safety analysis.

The tools of cold forming undergo strong mechanical and tribological stresses during their life cycle. These can lead in certains cases of damaged premature tools. The tools represent an important part of the manufacturing cost of a part; thus it is essential to anticipate well these problems during the designs. COLDFORM® allows you to analyze mechanical die strength in order to extend their service life. The software can compute stress distribution within the die, along with deformations, wear, temperatures and damage at any time during the process. COLDFORM® can carry out rapid analyzes which consist in applying stresses obtained during the forming process computation, to the tools. Moreover, COLDFORM® is capable of performing coupled part/tool computations, giving extremely precise results. Thanks to the functionalities dedicated to pre-stressed dies, it is possible to accurately determine the value of the necessary pre-stressing of the interference fit of the tools.
