Complex, multi-stage models can be easily created and quickly analyzed - tunnels in weak or jointed rock, underground powerhouse caverns, open pit mines
and slopes, embankments, MSE stabilized earth structures, and much more. Progressive failure, support interaction and a variety of other problems can be
addressed.

Phase
2
8.0 is a powerful 2D elasto-plastic finite element stress analysis program for underground or surface excavations in rock or soil. It can be used for a
wide range of engineering projects and includes support design, finite element slope stability, groundwater seepage and probabilistic analysis.
Phase
2
can be used f or modeling the excavation of an open pit mine. The model can be
excavated in stages and can include sub-vertical f aults which intersect the pit.

Phase
2
offers a wide range of support modeling options. Liner elements can be applied in the modeling of shotcrete, concrete, steel set systems, retaining walls,
piles, multi-layer composite liners, geotextiles and more. Liner design tools include support capacity plots which allow you to determine the safety factor of
reinforced liners. Bolt types include end anchored, fully bonded, cable bolts, split sets and grouted tiebacks.
One of the major features of Phase
2
is finite element slope stability analysis using the shear strength reduction method. This option is fully automated and can be
used with either Mohr-Coulomb or Hoek-Brown strength parameters. Slope models can be imported / exported between Slide and Phase
2
allowing easy
comparison of limit equilibrium and finite element results.

Phase
2
includes steady state, finite element groundwater seepage analysis built right into the program. There is no need to use a separate groundwater program.
Pore pressure is determined as well as flow and gradient, based on user defined hydraulic boundary conditions and material conductivity. Pore pressure results
are automatically incorporated into the stress analysis.

Material models for rock and soil include Mohr-Coulomb, Generalized Hoek-Brown and Cam-Clay. Powerful new analysis features for modeling jointed rock
allow you to automatically generate discrete joint or fracture networks according to a variety of statistical models. With new 64-bit and multi-core parallel
processing options Phase2 8.0 can solve larger and more complex models in shorter times.
