What's New in ITASCA Software 9.4
Please join our webinar showcasing the latest updates in ITASCA Software v9.4.
New features include:
Applies to FLAC3D, FLAC2D, 3DEC, MassFlow, PFC3D, and PFC2D:
- New UI object tree that:
- Provides quick and easy access to information about model objects, model files, and program settings
- Permits quick plotting of objects (zones, structural elements, walls), histories, and charts
- Permits quick listing of information in the Console
- Provides quick access to related help topics
- Permits streamlined watch information for selected parameters
- Export all (or only visible) 1D structural element (e.g., cables, rock bolts, beams, piles) data to tables and plot as charts or export to a CSV file
- Many updates of documentation, including links to YouTube videos
- Improvement on cut-plane where individual plot items can select a cut plane to sync to from a drop-down list
- Add geometry command to create geometry edges from txt or csv file.
Add hide null gridpoint option - Put zone joints to the results dialog
- Improved Rapid Tool to calculate Hoek-Brown material properties
Applies to FLAC3D and FLAC2D:
- CASM (Clay and Sand Model) constitutive model for assessing the static liquefaction potential of tailings dams from a relatively small set of material parameters, most of which can be calibrated from standard laboratory tests
Applies to FLAC3D:
- Plot Moment-Thrust and Shear-Thrust diagrams for structural elements
Applies to FLAC2D:
- Dynamic axisymmetric analysis
- Plot 2D contour isolines and include labels
- Plot grid points as labels or contoured in 2D
- Trigon (triangular) option added to the Voronoi Wizard
- Create lines in Sketch from an imported table of points
- Seven new examples and one updated example:
- Axisymmetric Model of an Advancing Lined Shaft
- Consolidation of an Embankment using Soft Soil
- Consolidation of an Embankment using Mohr-Coulomb
- Lined Tunnel in Saturated Ground
- Saturation and Draining of a Caisson
- Capillary Infiltration in a Dry Caisson
- Deformation caused by filling of a Caisson
- Updated dynamic analysis of a Tailings Dam to include CASM
Applies to 3DEC:
- Fluid flow in 3DEC now works for meshes imported from Griddle
Applies to MassFlow:
- Massive simulation speedup in MassFlow when you have lots of draw points and lots of markers
Applied to PFC:
- Add bonded-particle modeling document.
New features and improvements since 9.3:
- FLAC3D/FLAC2D:
- Sketch: add an option to combine DFN
- Extruder page accepts drops
- Enable MPI creep with cluster option
- Cable Pull Rapid Tool update
- 3DEC:
- Allow for more than one face group
- PFC:
- Add Hill contact model for rigid-block to rigid-block contacts
This webinar is tailored for professionals in engineering, geosciences, and related fields who are eager to explore cutting-edge software innovations in the latest ITASCA Software and enhancing their numerical modeling work. We look forward to having you attend the event!
