Python Soil Test Script for FLAC

The scripts also offer the uniqueness to run multiple simulations back-to-back, that are ideal for simulating an undrained triaxial cyclic compression followed by an undrained triaxial monotonic compression or simulating re-liquefaction scenarios. 

This package allows beginners and advanced users to compare the behaviour as defined by the constitutive model and the parameters of a soil data set with the results of laboratory and field test data obtained from a site investigation. All Python-FLAC scripts run under the demo license of FLAC3D. Therefore, the range of soil constitutive models available are limited to the built-in models in FLAC3D. 

The Python scripts are available to download below and require installation of FLAC3D to run properly. No additional keys or a local distribution of Python is needed.
