Phase 9.0 is coming soon!
2
Now with consolidation, dynamic analysis, and much more
Phase2 9.0 is a major upgrade, which delivers a number of substantial new features.
This article summarizes the new features of version 9.0 including:
s Anisotropic
models
s Mohr-Coulomb
with cap
s Softening/
hardening
models Mohr-Coulomb with Cap
Softening/hardening

The figures below illustrate typical This final pair of figures show drained
behavior of sands in drained triaxial triaxial compression test results for
compression tests. The variation different soils, illustrating the flex-

of the material as it approaches its and softening behavior for loose and
failure state. The volumetric behav- dense sand, as well as for soft and
ior for loose sand shows that the stiff clay. By utilizing the new models

dilation and increase in volume. soft clays can be simulated.
Many users use Phase2 for tunnel design. The new Tunnel Wizard makes modeling a tunnel in Phase2 9.0 much easier.
Simply select the Tunnel Shape, then specify the The preview window in the Tunnel Wizard dialog helps
Tunnel Settings and the tunnel center. Available you ensure that youve specified the tunnel geometry
Tunnel Shapes include: properly, before placing the tunnel in the model.
One of the major interface updates in Phase2 9.0 is the addition of work flow tabs. These tabs will guide you through the
process of creating a model, and reduce the icon clutter.
