This SLOPE/W analysis has the same properties as the other SLOPE/W analysis in the project file, except the pore-water pressures are defined from the 3D transient seepage analysis using …

This analysis method allows a user defined constant stress field (see Define Field Stresses in the GeoStudio menu) to be applied to the model. Field stresses are applied to the model through …

There are total of four analyses in the GeoStudio Project (Figure 2). Analysis #1 models the groundwater flow conditions presented in Figure 1 and forms the Parent for the stability …

Introduction The presence of small drainage basins can have a significant effect on the overall hydrogeological patterns of a landscape. Understanding the potential influence of these small …

mperature, which is an approximation of a surface energy balance. There are two alternatives in GeoStudio that could have been used: 1) the n-factor approach, which requires an air …

SHANSEP options GeoStudio allows for three different ways of specifying the SHANSEP undrained strength (Figure 2). Figure 2 SHANSEP option specified directly as a function of the …

The analysis of the Lavender MRT case study demonstrates that GeoStudio can be used to model the behavior of deep shored excavations in soft ground. More importantly, the case …

In a fully coupled effective stress/pore-water pressure type of analysis in GeoStudio, there is no need to simulate a no-volume change condition through an artificial Poisson’s ratio. A value of …

Many geotechnical engineering problems include the flow of water around a cut-off, which is installed to reduce the up-lift pressure on the dam and reduce the possibility of internal erosion …

A saturated value in GeoStudio defines the conductivity in the x-direction or the x ́-direction (transverse direction). The conductivity in the orthogonal direction (y in this case) is the x …
