PLAXIS 3D CONNECT Edition V24 | 2.2 Gb
Seequent, a bussines Bentley Systems, is pleased to announce the availability of PLAXIS 2D/3D 2024 Patch 1 (24.01.00.1060). Perform advanced finite element or limit equilibrium analysis of soil and rock deformation and stability, as well as soil structure interaction, groundwater, and heat flow. PLAXIS 2D 2024.1 Release notesPLAXIS 2D 2024.1 (24.1.1060) contains the following improvements and updates compared to PLAXIS 2D 2023.2: Compatibility notes: Due to the major changes in the material database and the unit system, PLAXIS 2D 2024.1 will be installed alongside Version 21, instead of overwriting it. When opening PLAXIS 2D V21 projects with PLAXIS 2D 2024.1, projects will automatically be saved as a converted copy with the _converted suffix and will require recalculation. When using non-SI-units, the mesh also needs to be regenerated. The PLAXIS 2D CONNECT Edition V21 projects will remain unchanged. Earlier versions of PLAXIS will not be able to open files saved in PLAXIS 2D 2024.1. New in PLAXIS 2D 2024.1 Combined reinforcements in Tunnel designer
The tunnel designer's reinforcement definition has been extended with the option "Number of parts". This allows users to easily extend the number of line segments to a maximum of 2, for each added reinforcement pattern and then set different element types and properties per part. With 2 parts users can quickly generate a cable element consisting of 2 parts of different length, allowing later pre-stressing 1 of the parts separately from the other part in Staged construction mode, or allowing different material sets per part. Another option is generating combined reinforcement consisting of a node-to-node anchor and a connected rock bolt.
Import multiple evaluations of a cross section from Seequent Central
A single cross section in Seequent Central can contain multiple different objects that have been evaluated on the cross section in Leapfrog. These could be different geological models, meshes, volumes, designs etc. When importing a cross section from Central into PLAXIS 2D, the user can now make a multi-selection of available evaluations found under the selected cross section, as an easy way to simultaneously import different types of data available and have them correctly placed in the geotechnical model.

[992870] introduced proper refence to the material index for Output result types to be used in result automation
[1015620] Fixed an issue when choosing Create water level and continue that uses time-dependent head data for the phreatic level.
[1066733] In some cases, after running the calculation, some files were locked and this prevented saving. This is now resolved.
[1100505] The Python API can now retrieve all Output State Parameter values, not only the first one in a model
[1102724] Fixed an issue with Fourier transformations that could lead to negative values.
[1173611] Reintroduced the specific storage Ss parameter as a read-only property in the Soil material dataset window when working with Drained, Undrained A and Undrained B material types.
[1176120] Fixed a unit issue in the calculation progress screen for the time display when using seconds as your project time unit.
[1186210] Saved views in Output are now properly stored when using Japanese or Chinese characters.

[1236424] Improved limits in Norsand pseudo-time stepping according to Sloan et al., (2001) to improve stress integration.
[1244058] It is possible again to use a K0 larger than 1 in PLAXIS SoilTest (e.g. in triaxial test)
[1274988] Tables for cross-section data show the assigned material name again instead of "No Soil".
[1291581] Fixed a PLAXIS Output printing issue for anchor materials when you have a mix of elastic and elastoplastic anchor material sets.

[1311818] In some complex cases, the Tunnel Designer would lead to some empty data values, which would crash when loading the file. This is now fixed.
[1312107] Improved continuation of Dynamics phases using Free Field elements and deactivating them in the next Dynamics phase.
[1318371] Python scripting PLAXIS Input: When not checking the option, hide on startup, the license window would always pop up. This can prevent automation workflows, as this window needs to be manually accepted in that case. This can now be solved using a newly introduced command line option: when launching PLAXIS Input, use the command line argument –NO_LICENCE_INFORMATION to suppress this window. Note: this will automatically accept any license selection without confirmation.
[1321996] Renamed the pore pressures option Interpolate to Interpolate (vertically) to explicitly explain how the interpolate is applied.

[1335530] Output visualization: now shows proper connection with tunnel lining (plates) in the deformed mesh plot.
PLAXIS 3D is a powerful and user friendly finite element package intended for three-dimensional analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering and rock mechanics. PLAXIS is used worldwide by top engineering companies and institutions in the civil and geotechnical engineering industry. Applications range from excavations, embankments and foundations to tunnelling, mining and reservoir geomechanics. PLAXIS 3D has advanced features to tackle modelling challenges in the most complex geotechnical projects, that cannot be solved with PLAXIS 2D. Finite element modelling in full 3D has never been easier with a range of CAD-like drawing tools and extrude, intersect, combine and array operations. It’s almost like sculpting. PLAXIS 3D 2024.1 Release notesPLAXIS 3D 2024.1 (24.1.1060) contains the following improvements and updates compared to PLAXIS 3D 2023.2.1: Compatibility notes: Files created in PLAXIS CONNECT Edition V22 can be read in PLAXIS 2024.1.
When upgrading from PLAXIS CONNECT Edition Version 21, due to the major changes in the material database and the unit system, PLAXIS 2024.1 will be installed alongside PLAXIS CONNECT Edition Version 21, instead of overwriting it. When opening PLAXIS CE V21 projects (or older) with PLAXIS 2024.1, projects will automatically be saved as a converted copy with the _converted suffix and will require recalculation. When using non-SI units, the mesh also needs to be regenerated. Earlier versions of PLAXIS will not be able to open files saved in PLAXIS 3D 2024.1. New in PLAXIS 3D 2024.1 Cable element added to Tunnel Designer Reinforcement tab
The tunnel designer has been updated to include the Cable element when defining the reinforcements. After adding reinforcements to a tunnel segment, the user can, in the property tree of the Reinforcements tab, now select from a new drop-down menu called "Element type" and choose between "Cable bolt" or "Rock bolt". The former uses the new element, the latter still uses the approach of previous releases namely the embedded beam element. The Cable element also naturally integrates in the tunnel designer's sequencing mode allowing activation/deactivation and pre-stressing of cable reinforcement patterns.
Combined Reinforcements in Tunnel Designer
The Tunnel designer's reinforcement definition has been extended with the option "Number of parts". This allows users to easily extend the number of line segments to a maximum of 2, for each added reinforcement pattern and then set different element types and properties per part. With 2 parts users can quickly generate a cable element consisting of 2 parts of different lengths, allowing later pre-stressing 1 of the parts separately from the other part, or allowing different material sets per part. Another option is generating combined reinforcement consisting of a node-to-node anchor and a connected rockbolt. These Combined Reinforcements are naturally integrated into the Sequencing Mode of the Tunnel Designer and allow activation/deactivation and pre-stressing cables per part for a defined reinforcement pattern.

[1311818] In some complex cases, the Tunnel Designer would lead to some empty data values, which would crash when loading the file. This is now fixed.
[1317696] Fixed an issue for 3D Dynamics boudaries when you have a conflicting definition of standard fixities and vertical displacements/accelerations on the bottom boundary: the vertical displacements/accelerations now get preference.
[1318371] Python scripting PLAXIS Input: When not checking the option, hide on startup, the license window would always pop up. This can prevent automation workflows, as this window needs to be manually accepted in that case. This can now be solved using a newly introduced command line option: when launching PLAXIS Input, use the command line argument –NO_LICENCE_INFORMATION to surpress this window. Note: this will automatically accept any license selection without confirmation.
[1319307] Fixed an naming synchronization issue for Custom Connections in PLAXIS Output between the table result and the model explorer AFTER renaming Custom Connections in PLAXIS Input.
[1321996] Renamed the pore pressures option Interpolate to Interpolate (vertically) to explicitly explain how the interpolate is applied.
