Get a quick start using PLAXIS by understanding and using finite elements and the basics of soil modelling. Learn to apply PLAXIS for excavation and embankment problems, calculate factors of safety and modelling groundwater.
The Standard Course on Computational Geotechnics has over 30 years of history for teaching the practical application of the Finite Element method in geotechnical engineering. The standard course is aimed at both beginning users to get a quick start and users with already some experience or experience with an older version of the software. The standard course focuses mostly on the engineering application, specifically on excavations and embankments, but also gives insight in more theoretical topics as elasticity and plasticity, consolidation and undrained soil behaviour. Experts with a thorough theoretical background and an extensive experience in practical computer modelling have been invited to give lectures and to prepare exercises as well as case studies.
What will the course cover?
Participants can choose to attend only the 3-days standard course or include the introduction day prior to the course. For new PLAXIS users, we recommend joining the introduction day as well.
