Geotechnical FEM Course with RS2 & RS3

This two-day course covers the application of the finite element method using Rocscience software RS2 and RS3 to analyze various 2D and 3D geotechnical models of surface and underground excavations. The course includes modules on the fundamentals of finite element analysis, modelling earth structures and foundations, and modelling tunnels and underground excavations. It is aimed at geotechnical engineers and students who want to learn how to use numerical modelling tools to solve design problems. Participants will gain hands-on experience through tutorials.

COURSE OUTLINE

April 22–23, 2021

Finite Element Modelling of Civil & Mining Excavations


The advent of cheap, powerful computing resources and easy-to-use
software is making it possible to analyze everyday geotechnical problems with
the Finite Element Method (FEM). This training will cover the application of two
user-friendly and interactive Rocscience software – RS2 and RS3 – to analyze
various geotechnical infrastructure in 2D and 3D. The course will examine
the modelling of surface excavations and infrastructure, including earth-fill
dams, braced excavations and foundations. Lastly, the course will explore the
application of 3D software to underground excavation analysis.
The course aims at helping participants break down real-world problems
into simpler solvable components and develop practical models that provide
the required insights and answers. This will be achieved through a mix of
presentations and “hands-on” tutorials.
SSR analysis using RS3
