This training is an introduction to continuous modeling with FLAC2D and FLAC3D. At the end of the course, participants will master the graphical interface, documentation and the main modeling steps. Concepts are illustrated using a tunnel excavation example, from building the model geometry to results analysis. This introductory course provides the foundation for more advanced use of the software, which can be covered in more specific training modules.
In addition to improved computational performance, rigid blocks have been enhanced to:
The clumping logic has been generalized, allowing collections of balls and/or convex rigid blocks to be clumped together.
