Special Program Offer: Attend both the Advanced Course on Computational Geotechnics and the Dynamics and Seismic Geotechnical Engineering workshop for a combined discount rate of €2250.

This 2-days course focusses on the use of PLAXIS 2D for dynamics analysis in general with a particular interest for seismic analysis. The course gives a combination of theoretical and technical background information as well as modelling possibilities in PLAXIS and hands-on exercises.

Day 1

introduction to dynamics
soil properties in dynamics analysis
