SoilWorks 2013(v2.1) Release Note 3. [Slope] Editing the Data of Arc Radius • You can modify the radius data of arc failure surface (Transform, Expand/Collapse, Rotation) on the model. • Selection Filter > Grid for Arc Failure Surface 4. [Slope] Review the Critical Height • Generate an analysis case for each height by dividing the surface automatically for building height. • You can perform a parametric analysis to consider the critical height for each stage after taking into account the increase in strength through the soft ground analysis. • Limit Equilibrium Method > Parametric Analysis...

SoilWorks 2013(v2.1) Release Note 5. [Dynamic] Improvement the Auto-generate 2D Equivalent Boundary Elements • This feature creates easily the boundary elements and constraints which are used in 2D equivalent analysis. It calculates the stiffness automatically by searching the location of free ground dampers. (The meet parts between the bottom and the transmitting boundary are selected automatically.) • Model > Element > Auto-generate Boundary Element > Auto-generate 2D Equivalent Boundary [Free Ground Dampers] [Free Ground Node] 6.

SoilWorks 2013(v2.1) Release Note 1. [Slope] Cut Failure Surface Boundary and Tension Crack • You can define the failure surface combining the arc and polygonal failure surface. • You can calculate the optimal safety factor using the composite failure surface according to the site conditions and consider to the design by predicting the location where tension crack can occur. • Limit Equilibrium Method > Boundaries > Cut Failure Surface [Define Composite Failure Surface] • In most cases, crack occurs according to the shape of the strata rather than arc failure when the arc failure surface...

SoilWorks 2013(v2.1) Release Note 2. [Slope] Additional Reinforcement Type and Advanced Option for LEM Analysis • You can use the Fabric and Anchor type reinforcement which are same function with Slope/W. • You can adjust the slice segmentation and the reinforcing effect in detail and calculate the reasonable result of limit equilibrium method. • LEM > Structural Property > Anchor(LEM) • LEM > Structural Property > Strip/Fabric(LEM) [Define Anchor(LEM)] [Define Strip/Fabric(LEM)] • You can define tensile and pullout force and consider shear force of anchor as well. • The Strip and Fabric...

SoilWorks 2013(v2.1) Release Note 3.
