PFC 7 Balls in a Box
This tutorial will guide you through the main steps required to build a simple PFC model with 30 interacting balls in a box using the linear contact model.
FLAC3D 6.0 Model Generation using the Building Blocks and Geometric Data Sets
Generating Videos via Plots
This tutorial illustrates how to generate movies from FLAC3D plots. It is also applicable for 3DEC, PFC, and UDEC.
A Calibrated Predictive Geochemical Model of Leaching and Attenuation Reactions in a Mine Pit Lake
A geochemical model was developed to predict future water quality of the Cove pit lake in support of site closure and regulatory permitting.
Which fractures are imaged with Ground Penetrating Radar? Results from an experiment in the Äspö Hardrock Laboratory, Sweden
Identifying fractures in the subsurface is crucial for many geomechanical and hydrogeological applications. Here, we assess the ability of the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) method to image open fractures with sub-mm apertures in the context of future deep disposal of radioactive waste.
Numerical modeling of rock blasting: Validation tests for Blo-Up 2.5
As part of the Hybrid Stress Blast Model (HSBM) project, Itasca has developed software to model the rock blasting process.
