In this tutorial we will take a look at the different boundary conditions available to the user, and we will go over some examples of different scenarios in which they would be used.
This tutorial demonstrates how you can add isosurfaces to your 3D Itasca model plots.
This tutorial will guide you through how to create a simple material using the linear parallel bond-model.
We derive the relationships that link the general elastic properties of rock masses to the geometrical properties of fracture networks, with a special emphasis to the case of frictional crack surfaces.
We extend the well-known elastic solutions for free-slipping cracks to fractures whose plane resistance is defined by an elastic fracture (shear) stiffness ks and a stick-slip Coulomb threshold.
Hydraulic testing using wireline deployed water-inflated packers is becoming a common practice for groundwater characterization at mining sites.
It has become common practice to create a three-dimensional (3-D) geomechanical model for the analysis of rock stability.
