SVFLUX

SVFLUX is finite element software that allows modeling of groundwater seepage in unsaturated or saturated soils and rock. Offered as a comprehensive 1D, 2D, and 3D program for calculating steady-state and transient-state flow as well as evaporation from the ground surface. This feature is a leading option for geotechnical and hydrogeological analysis. This application is used for solutions involving calculation of pore-water pressures for slope stability, tailings dams, earth dams, reservoirs, unsaturated cover systems, and groundwater flow in embankments.

CAPABILITIES

Analyze saturated or unsaturated soils
Provide stable analysis of groundwater flow in saturated or unsaturated soils. Consider staged construction and excavation modeling scenarios.

Coupled consolidation analysis
Couple with SVSOLID™ to solve small and large-strain consolidation

Creation of geometry
Create geometrically complex digital twin 3D models with the SVDESIGNER™ conceptual model builder. Create 3D models from triangulated surfaces (TINS). Implement multiple 3D model-building methodologies (extrusions, 2D cross-section stitching, 3D layer cake, block models, or material volume method).

Create models quickly
Featuring a familiar user interface with easy-to-understand icons and functions. The software features behave exactly like how you would expect with a short learning curve. You will be able to start modeling right away.

Generate pore-water pressures for slope stability models
Featuring a familiar user interface with easy-to-understand icons and functions. The software features behave exactly how you would expect with a short learning curve. You will be able to start modeling right away.

Model boundary conditions in steady-state or transient models
Head, flux, climatic, and cauchy boundary conditions are available in steady-state or transient models. Boundary condition data can be entered as tabled values. Advanced Fredlund-Wilson-Penman climatic boundary condition calculates the actual evaporation based on weather station data.

Quad/Triangular/Tetrahedral meshing support
Provide Quad/Triangular/Tetrahedral meshing support. Implement semi-automatic mesh generation and manual mesh refinement. This solution allows models of higher complexity to be produced from various 2D and 3D data sources.

Parameter determination methods
This application has numerous different soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) fitting methods, saturated hydraulic conductivity estimation methods, and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity estimation methods. Develop parameters in SVSOILS or obtain them by searching through the database of 40,000+ soils.
