DESCRIPTION:

Santa Rosa, CA – June 16, 2008 – gINT Software, Inc.

FINE Software’s GEO5 FEM and Tunnel software is newly available in North America through its exclusive distributor, gINT Software. GEO5 FEM is designed for civil engineering firms looking for cost-effective solutions for both new development projects and for existing sites affected by geotechnical problems such as terrain settlement, excavation and slope stability, sheet piling, and underpinning.

GEO5 FEM gives the engineer the ability to accurately model complex multi-stage construction projects. In addition, structures such as retaining walls, foundations or sheet piling designed in other GEO5 modules can be imported into the FEM application, for general Finite Element Method analysis. This not only saves the designer’s time but also compares two independent solutions, thereby increasing design safety and feasibility.

GEO5 FEM lets you 

  • Quickly create models with built-in model drawing capabilities and DXF import

  • Include rigid structures such as beams, sheeting structures, or tunnel linings into your analysis

  • Automatically generate mesh

  • Add anchors, geogrids and geotextile elements into your analysis

  • Model ground water conditions

  • Select material models including elastic, Mohr-Coulomb, Drucker-Prager, and Cam Clay

  • Automatically generate boundary conditions

  • Perform slope stability analysis in any/all construction phases

GEO5 Tunnel is also available as an extension to the GEO5 FEM.  GEO5 Tunnel enables the analysis and design of tunnel construction. 

A free trial version of GEO5 FEM and other GEO5 software applications is available at www.gintsoftware.com
