Safe

Features

• Analysis of plane stress, plane strain or axially symmetric problems. General loading of linear elastic axisymmetric structures can be carried out using a Fourier series technique.
• Linear or non-linear behaviour
• Gravity loading
• Pore pressures and effective stresses are identified separately, allowing computation for drained or undrained conditions, and time dependent consolidation
• Incremental loading and changes of material properties, permitting the formation of excavations, embankments etc.
• Intermediate results can be stored and inspected before the problem is continued further.
• Pressure (distributed) and line loading
• Fixed or spring restraints
• 8 noded quadrilateral elements. These can be curvilinear
• Consolidation problems
• Wells
• Seepage and flow
• Extensive graphical input options and in-built mesh generation facility
• Wide range of graphical output and printing facilities
