1. [Common] Automatic calculation of Stiffness for Complex Cross-Section

• Stiffness parameter is calculated at section not standardized. (Area(A), Moment of inertia(Iy), Radius of gyration(Ry))

• T If selecting 2D elements that ground properties are assigned to, stiffness is automatically calculated from selected elements and properties. And it can be used in Structural property. The denser mesh is, the closer to the correct solution value can be obtained.

• Model > Property > Stiffness Calculator

Pre-Processing

※ Stiffness that is registered can be used when Shape is [User

Defined] in Structural Property and applicable members are ‘Beam’,

‘Truss’ and ‘Embed Truss’ elements.

1. [Slope] Probability and Sensitivity Analyses

• Almost all input parameters can be assigned a probability distribution, and compute a probability distribution of the resulting safety factors.

• Once the probability distribution of the safety factors are known, other quantifying parameters, such as the probability of failure can be determined.

• With a uniform probability distribution, the probabilistic scheme can also be used to conduct a sensitivity analysis.

1. [Slope] Probability and Sensitivity Analyses

Analysis

[ Illustration of sensitivity and probability result plot ]

• The point where the two sensitivity curves cross is the deterministic factor of safety or the factor of safety at the mid-point of the ranges for each of the strength parameters.

• Histogram, Cumulative and Convergence type are supported for graph type of Probability Result.

• Results > Static Results > Sensitivity/Probability Result

2. [Slope] Optimization Method in LEM

• Optimization method is introduced in slope stability analysis using LEM. • It is the method finding the safety factor of critical failure surface by generating approximation model about relationship between the movement of polygon and safety factor and changing the slice of polygonal failure surface gradually. In other words, failure surface where the lowest safety factor is occurred is searched through iterative calculation from the failure surface where minimum safety factor is occurred.

3. [Soft Ground] Replacement Method in 1D Consolidation

• It is possible to simulate the replacement method that ground properties are changed on construction stage from 1D Consolidation analysis. (Replacement method property is only available embankment material (1D) type.)

• Simulating compulsory replacement method and excavation replacement method is possible through ‘Consider of Excavate material Load’.

• Compulsory replacement : [Uncheck ‘Consider of Excavate material Load’] – Replaced load is considered as additional load not considering removed excavate material load.

• Excavation replacement : [Check ‘Consider of Excavate material Load’] – As difference between the replaced load and removed load by excavation is considered as additional load.

4. [Seepage] Infinite Boundary Element

• Infinite boundary element that flow is generated infinitely is defined to boundary line of elements. • Geometrical shape function of infinite elements represents infinite area of global coordinate system to finite area of natural coordinate system and is applied when calculating Jacobian matrix. Infinite elements are available to 4 nodes and 8 nodes that are rectangular elements, and Effects of infinite boundary are not considered to triangular elements.
