New in PLAXIS Monopile Designer 2023.1
Release: February 2023
PLAXIS Monopile Designer 2023.1 (23.1.0.136) contains the following improvements and updates compared to PLAXIS Monopile Designer CONNECT Edition V22.02:
Compatibility notes: Due to the major changes in the material database and the unit system, PLAXIS CONNECT Edition Version 22 will be installed alongside Version 21, instead of overwriting it. When running the calibration, GeoDS-projects created with PLAXIS CONNECT Edition 3D Version 21 will automatically be saved by PLAXIS Monopile Designer as a converted copy with the _converted suffix.
The PLAXIS CONNECT Edition V21 projects will remain unchanged.
New features
Displacement control in Analysis mode
It is possible to impose a prescribed displacement on the 1D analysis and 3D design verification models.
Failure condition for Max. rotation
Next to a Max. displacement, it is now possible to define a Max. rotation. The 1D analysis will stop when either of the failure conditions is reached.
PLAXIS part of Seequent, The Bentley Subsurface Company
PLAXIS has become part of Seequent, Bentley’s brand for subsurface modelling and analysis applications. As part of this transition, the versioning, logos and splash screens used in various places in the software and installer have seen some minor changes.
