PLAXIS 2D WorkSuite
2D geotechnical engineering software
PLAXIS 2D
PLAXIS 2D includes all the essential functionalities to perform everyday deformation and safety analysis for soil and rock that do not require the consideration of creep, steady state groundwater or thermal flow, consolidation analysis, or any time-dependent effects.
PLAXIS 2D Advanced
PLAXIS 2D Advanced includes everything that is included in PLAXIS 2D, plus it offers more advanced features and material models to consider creep, flow-deformation coupling through consolidation analysis and steady state groundwater or heat flow. It also solves your problems faster with the multicore solver.
- Model diverse geotechnical problems
- Create FE models quickly and efficiently
- Simulate various types of soil and rock behavior
- Achieve consistently accurate results
- Conduct powerful and versatile post processing
PLAXIS 2D Ultimate
Extend the capabilities of PLAXIS 2D Advanced with additional capabilities for analyzing the effects of vibrations in the soil, such as earthquake and traffic loads; simulate complex hydrological, time-dependent variations of water levels, or flow functions on model or soil boundaries; and assess the effect of transient heat flow on the hydraulic and mechanical behavior of soil.
- Dynamic Modeling
- Groundwater Flow Analysis
- Thermal Modeling
PLAXIS 2D WorkSuite
PLAXIS 2D WorkSuite is the most comprehensive option of PLAXIS 2D which includes PLAXIS 2D Ultimate and PLAXIS 2D LE. PLAXIS 2D WorkSuite integrates the powerful and user-friendly finite element and limit equilibrium analysis capabilities of PLAXIS applications for the design and analysis of soil, rock, and associated structures.
“The use of PLAXIS and the help from PLAXIS experts resulted in a very successfully ground freezing project. The measured results were very consistent with the modeled behavior, resulting in cost and energy saving.”
