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.

This example uses AE location data without waveforms. It is designed to give you an overview of the Location Visualiser.
The data is from the concrete bulkhead of CNL’s (formerly AECL) TSX experiment at the Underground Research Laboratory. The AE imaged the creation of a fracture. This imaging was influential in allowing successful remedial work to be undertaken.
Download the walk-through for a description of the project and instructions on navigating through the main visualisers.
To run the example you will also need to download InSite-Lite.
