In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to map a random point cloud with pore pressure values onto the grid points of a FLAC3D model using Python.
Building Blocks works seamlessly with the FLAC3D 6.0 extruder tool and new Model Pane. Building Blocks includes a library of model primates and users can also add and load their own building block sets.
Hydraulic testing using wireline deployed water-inflated packers is becoming a common practice for groundwater characterization at mining sites.
Numerical models are now used routinely to predict ground-water inflows to both surface and underground mines and to help design dewatering systems.
With increasing depth, higher stress and more difficult mining. With increasing depth is there more ground surface effects or less?
