Introduction to Python scripting by reviewing key concepts and through demonstrations. Part 1 focuses on installing Python, variables and types, conditions and loops, and functions.
This tutorial reviews how you can generate movies from plots with FLAC3D and most Itasca software.
In this example, a pile of earth is modeled overlying undulating ground. This tutorial demonstrates how a FLAC3D model mesh can be easily created using DXF geometries and the ZONE DENSIFY command. How to differentiate parts of the model into separate GROUPs using DXF geometries and the GEOMETRY-SPACE range logic is also demonstrated.
This paper presents the formulation of a constitutive model to simulate the behavior of foliated rock mass. The 3D elastoplastic constitutive model, called Comba, accounts for the presence of arbitrary orientations of weakness in a nonisotropic elastoplastic matrix.
Assess the use InSAR technology for LKAB's purposes - as a replacement and/or complement to current GPS measurements.
Numerical models are now used routinely to predict ground-water inflows to both surface and underground mines and to help design dewatering systems.
