Abstract

Described are the results of research and development in the use of interactive computer graphics for soil engineering analysis and design. Two specific areas are described: settlement analysis and slope stability. The systems described herein have been implemented on a CDC 6400 using a CDC 280/282 interactive display system. Three soil engineering application systems are described. They are: Rate INteractive Graphics (RING), a system for predicting the progress of consolidation of multilayered soil deposits; Elastic LAyer STress-INteractive Graphics (ELASTING), a system for determining the stresses and displacements in layered elastic media; and FEllenius-May Analysis-Limiting Equilibrium (FEMALE), a system for analyzing the stability of earth structures using the Fellenius-May technique.
