This program is based on the finite element method and is used to analyze a wide range of geotechnical problems, including ground subsidence, piled walls and diaphragm walls, slope stability, and excavation analysis. It offers several soil material models and a variety of structural elements such as walls, anchors, geotextiles, and geogrids. Geo5 FEM is used to calculate displacements, internal forces, stresses, and plastic zones in the soil for each construction phase.
With additional modules, the program can also perform tunnel excavation analysis, steady-state or transient groundwater flow analysis, consolidation analysis, or dynamic seismic impact analysis..
