Explore the 2D excavation analysis of a tunnel in a rock mass. This webinar will particularly focus on PLAXIS 2D model construction, more specifically highlighting tunnel geometry, rock bolt definition, and the use of the convergence-confinement method for the consideration of 3D effects. Finally, extensive elements of comparison with an identical analysis run in FLAC2D geotechnical analysis software will be discussed.
In this webinar, you will learn about:
- Efficiently use the Tunnel Designer for modeling underground excavation
- Apply the Convergence-Confinement method in 2D tunnel analysis
- Define rock bolts using embedded beam elements
- Explore a results comparison between PLAXIS and FLAC
