This FLAC 8.1 tutorial demonstrates how to update the soil densities and the effective stresses in the embankment.
It has become common practice to create a three-dimensional (3-D) geomechanical model for the analysis of rock stability.
In this study, we address the issue of using graphs to predict flow as a fast and relevant substitute to classical DFNs. We consider two types of graphs, whether the nodes represent the fractures or the intersections between fractures.
A 3D groundwater flow model was constructed using MINEDW [1] to simulate pore pressure at the Chuquicamata open pit mine slope in Chile.
