Geotechnical tunnel modelling with PLAXIS

Start de-risking tunnelling and underground excavation projects today

This eBook includes a practical guide on:

  • Define complex ground profiles and geotechnical cross-sections.
  • Explore the impact of adding structural elements such as steel sets, umbrella arches, and rock bolts.
  • Analyse the effect of human-made or seismic vibrations on soil, rock, or associated structures.
  • Perform flow and/or deformation analysis to assess the impact of dewatering or other sources of water level variation.
  • Organise tunnel construction elements efficiently in PLAXIS Tunnel Designer for optimised geometry definition, time-effective meshing, efficient phase generation, and streamlined model creation.

In this eBook, we’ll explore how PLAXIS helps engineers analyse soil, rock and associated structures with accuracy, speed and ease. PLAXIS is built to solve the problems that geotechnical engineers face everyday – including the challenges of de-risking tunnelling projects.

Efficiently create, analyse and post-process tunnel finite element models – without spending hours correcting mistakes or repeating the same low-value tasks.
