Itasca is pleased to announce that the 6th Itasca Symposium on Applied Numerical Modelling will take place 3 - 6 June 2024 in Toronto, Canada.

Itasca are delighted to announce the highly anticipated release of FLAC2D, a 2D version of FLAC3D, and the latest version of their advanced geotechnical engineering software. This powerful software package represents a significant milestone in the field, inheriting all FLAC3D v9’s array of advanced tools and enhanced capabilities that will revolutionize the way you analyse and model geotechnical problems.  

Itasca Consulting Group (Itasca) has announced the release of FLAC3D v9, an advanced continuum modelling tool for solving the most challenging geotechnical problems in mining, civil, and energy engineering.

FLAC3D v9 is built upon a common framework to be leveraged by all future Itasca software products. Upcoming releases of 3DEC, FLAC2D, and PFC will all integrate into FLAC3D. In doing so, Itasca streamlines the work to model complex engineering models, reducing overhead and simplifying project management. The outcome is a powerful modelling suite that can simplify work across a wide range of engineering simulation. Now available for Windows and Linux.

The latest version of ASC's seismic processing application InSite is now released and available to download from our Downloads page. The new version incorporates the following new features:

• Calculation and display of Shake maps displaying PPA or PPV for seismic events monitored using a surface array
• Calculation of Local magnitude (ML) using a user-configurable equation
• Incorporated the option in Frac manager to add uniaxial sensor arrays, e,g, fibre optics lines.
• Added the import and harvesting of BDF files from AE and surveys acquired using Elsys acquisition systems
• Additional configuration options in the import of SAC files
• Added flexible options for the enablibg and disabling of channels
• Added BDF format files to the Stream visualiser

You can find out more about the new release in our upcoming free webinar on 14.02.2023 at 15:00 GMT. To join the webinar, please fill in this form and we will send you a link closer to the day.

We invite you to join our free webinar on Tuesday 15th November at 14:00 GMT presenting the results from laboratory and in-situ tests monitoring the cracking induced through the drying of clay soil samples, investigating the factors controlling its initiation and propagation.

Crack development in clay soils has the potential to alter its thermal, hydraulic, physico-chemical and mechanical characteristics. This phenomenon has implications in the investigation of natural and farmed soils and also in the engineering use of clay and clay-like materials, such as mine tailings, clay barriers in landfill, road paving, shallow foundations and even in the analysis of planetary soils.
