This FLAC 8.1 tutorial demonstrates how to update the soil densities and the effective stresses in the embankment.
In this tutorial, we review how to automatically skin models, identify and group zone faces, and interactively select and group zones and zone faces. This tutorial also illustrates using the Model Pane to interactively add a shell structural element along a tunnel.

This paper presents analytical solutions to estimate at any scale the fracture density variability associated to stochastic Discrete Fracture Networks. These analytical solutions are based upon the assumption that each fracture in the network is an independent event. Analytical solutions are developed for any kind of fracture density indicators.
It has become common practice to create a three-dimensional (3-D) geomechanical model for the analysis of rock stability.
