Organizations in need of a powerful 3D limit equilibrium software
About PLAXIS LE
With PLAXIS 2D LE or PLAXIS 3D LE you can model and analyze geoengineering projects with limit equilibrium. These powerful software applications for limit equilibrium slope stability analysis and finite element analysis of groundwater seepage provide rapid, comprehensive analysis for various conditions. Create 2D and 3D limit equilibrium slope stability models of soil and rock slopes. Take advantage of the comprehensive set of search methods and more than 15 analysis methods. Use multiplane analysis (MPA), for enhanced spatial slope stability analysis. Perform analysis on embankments, dams, reservoirs, and cover systems through earth structures and broader hydrogeological settings.

CPillar
Get quick and easy stability analysis of surface or underground crown pillars and laminated roof beds using three different limit equilibrium analysis methods: rigid plate, elastic plate, and Voussoir (no tension) plate analysis. Perform probabilistic analysis to determine the probability of failure. Model variability in geometry, point of force application, joint and bedding strength, water pressure, external loads and more by assigning statistical distributions to variables. Perform sensitivity analysis using a range of values to evaluate the effects of changing model parameters on factor of safety. Originally developed for steeply dipping ore body geometries, by estimating crown geometry and assessing the stope geometry as steep or shallow, you can apply the most appropriate empirical relationships to your model.

PLAXIS 2D
Every project is challenging, but the geotechnical analysis doesn’t have to be. PLAXIS 2D provides the power of fast computations. 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 is a powerful and user-friendly finite-element (FE) software for 2D 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. PLAXIS 2D is ideal for a range of applications from excavations, embankments, and foundations to tunneling, mining, oil and gas, and reservoir geomechanics. PLAXIS 2D includes all the essentials to perform deformation and safety analysis for soil and rock that do not require the consideration of creep, steady state groundwater or thermal flow, consolidation analysis, or any time-dependent effects.

RS2
Whether your project is civil or mining based, above ground or below, RS2 enables you to effectively analyze stress/deformation, stability, support design, and staged excavations with ease. Factor in groundwater flow with RS2’s integrated seepage analysis tool for steady-state and transient conditions of dams, embankments, slopes, tunnels, and excavations. Automate your slope stability analysis with shear strength reduction which performs a finite element analysis to identify the critical strength reduction factor. Embankments can be analyzed using slope stability, groundwater seepage, consolidation, or dynamic analysis. RS2 includes groundwater and dynamic analysis tools in addition to a vast library of advanced constitutive models to capture the sudden loss of strength due to liquefaction. Developed for both open-pit and underground excavations, analyze stability, stress/deformation, bench design, and support design of underground caverns and openings.
