This tutorial will guide you through how to create a simple material using the linear parallel bond-model.
A tutorial showing how to create a structured mesh in FLAC3D 7.0 using the extruder pane.
This tutorial reviews how you can generate movies from plots with FLAC3D and most Itasca software.
Lahars represent natural phenomena that can generate severe damage in densely populated urban areas. The evaluation of pressures generated by these mass flows on constructions (buildings, infrastructure…) is crucial for civil protection and assessment of physical vulnerability. The existing tools to model the spread of flows at large scale in densely populated urban areas remain inaccurate in the estimation of mechanical efforts. A discrete numerical model is developed for evaluating debris flow (DF) impact pressures at the local scale of one structure.
Historical development and engineering applications using PFC2D and PFC3D.
Numerical models are now used routinely to predict ground-water inflows to both surface and underground mines and to help design dewatering systems.
