displacement (slaving) did not work correctly with backfilled
joints. |
| 2. |
Compute: Improvement to Swellex
and Tieback bolts to better handle shear failure. |
| 3. |
Compute: Improvement to Queens
cable bolt model. |
| 4. |

with ponded water loads. |
| 5. |
Modeler: Groundwater Seepage Face
boundary condition is now the default when doing infiltration. |
| 6. |
Interpret/Modeler: Fixed Interpret
Print To Scale option that was always disabled. You can now
define
scale
for
printing by going to File -> Print Scale. Added Print Scale
to Modeler. |
| 7. |
Interpret: Fixed Interpret Zoom
Lock feature that was always disabled. Zoom Lock allows one
to maintain the same viewing window between 2 or more side-by-side
windows. |
| 8. |
Interpret: Added new title block
with "Scale" box to show user defined print scale.
This is now the default footer for CAD view in both Modeler
and Interpret.. |
| 9. |

of bolts across a joint. They are drawn as failed in the region
around the joint-bolt intersection. |

element numbers and markers in the liner/joint/bolt graphs.
Improved the plot generation speed.. |
| 11. |

form (Analysis/Project Settings/Project Summary) horizontal
scrolling is not working, neither by horizontal slider nor
automatically when typing in Project Title and other fields.

| 12. |
Model: The writing of staged liner
material properties sometimes didn't work correctly.. |
| 13. |
Compute: When computing groundwater
with Intel solver, program used to abort when there were no
restraints.
This is fixed. Program no longer aborts but returns 0 head
for all nodes (same as non-Intel solver). |
| 14. |
Modeler: In Add Vertex mode Snap
option was applied always, even when coordinates were entered
through prompt line. This prevented users from entering new
vertices close to existing vertices. Also there’s now
a message telling user if inserted vertex already exist instead
of generic message “Point is not on any boundary”. |
| 15. |
Interpret: Improved the generation
of flow lines, the agorithm now uses Runge Kutta integration
with adaptive stepsize. The old algorithm (Euler integration)
sometimes resulted in flowlines that crossed. |
| 16. |
Interpret: Added the ability to
plot major prinmciple stress flow lines. Look in the Analysis
menu under Stress Flow. |
| 17. |
Updated Help system
with new tutorials. |

to a Slide file when no finite-element mesh existed. The program
would crash. |
| 4. |
Compute/Modeler: Bolts would sometime
crash compute due to a bug in writing them in the modeler.
Excavated elements would be written in the list of elements
crossed. |
| 5. |
Modeler/Interpret: DXF import was
improved to get rid of memory leakage. |
| 6. |
Modeler:.A bug that caused the
program to crash when using secondary bond length was fixed. |

program to crash when using mapped meshing and nodal forces was
fixed. |
| 8. |
Updated Help system. |
| 1. |
Modeler: In the joint network
dialog added ability to randomize all joint sets of a joint
network.
Clicking on the arrow of the "Randomize" button brings
up menu with Randomize All or Randomize Current Set choices. |
| 2. |
Modeler/Interpret: Fixed circle
tool. Rectangular bounding box was always drawn around the
circle/oval, while it is only supposed to show up when adding
or editing the tool. |
| 3. |
Modeler: Fixed nodes/elements
indicator on status bar was not updating after using right-click
menu
to increase element density of SSR zone |
| 4. |
Modeler: Fixed a refine mesh problem.
Inverted elements were being created. |
| 5. |
Modeler. Change was made to allow
user to select "Automatically Mesh" option when importing
Slide files that have existing groundwater mesh without resetting
boundary conditions. |
| 6. |
Modeler. Improved Geometry Cleanup
feature. It now deletes end segments below the threshold distance
and also snaps vertices to segments if they are within the
threshold distance. Added option to run the cleaner multiple
times for more thorough results. |
| 7. |
Modeler: For Joint networks, changed
the trace plane convention so that Trace Plane Dip Direction
points
into
the
screen (and not out of the screen). |
| 8. |
Modeler: For joint networks, fixed
a bug with Baecher networks that caused joint traces not to
be plotted whenever the dip direction of a joint was parallel
to trace plane dip direction.. |
| 9. |
Modeler/Compute: The groundwater
pressure inside joints can be factored at stages. |
| 10. |
Modeler/Compute: Secondary grout
length for tieback bolts has been implemented. |
| 11. |
Compute: Fixed speed issue on Vista
64 bit computers with more than 4GB of memory. Engine with
Intel solver was performing a lot slower than non-Intel version
due to incorrectly determined available memory. |
| 12. |
Compute: Small bug fix in plain
strand cable bolts. |
| 13. |
Interpret: Interpret. Added ability
to export all or selected lines, queries and tools to a separate
file so that they can be imported later into another model.
Lines, queries and tools can now be imported from another Phase2
7 fez file. |
| 14. |
Modeler/Interpret. Fixed circle
tool. Rectangular bounding box was always drawn around the
circle/oval, while it is only supposed to show up when adding
or editing the tool. |
| 15. |
All modules. Fixed minor potential
memory leaks. |
| 16. |

dialog, the title of the Designation group box always says
Designation (Imperial) even if you select Metric. |
| 4. |
Modeler: Fixed a bug where rectangle
for joint network generation would always stretch to point
0,0 |
| 5. |
Modeler: Improved mesh smoothing
to prevent inverted elements. This mostly affects models with
joint networks that didn’t compute. |
| 6. |
Modeler: A bug in the geometry
cleaning would prevent overlapping line segments from being
deleted. |
| 7. |
Modeler: Composite liners with
multiple liners and slip between liners did not install correctly
if all the liners were installed in the same stage. |
| 8. |
Modeler: Help links for Material,
Joint, Bolt, and Liner Properties dialog have been fixed. |
| 9. |
Modeler: Fixed removal of overlapping
joint network sets. Previously user was asked the question,
but the sets were not removed. |

Modeler/Interpreter: Info Viewer
display options allow to add/remove various sections with information. |
| 11. |
Compute: Conjugate gradient solver
did not work. Fixed. |
