Rocscience travels to India!

RocNews Spring 2008 is here!

Version 1.007

1.	In previous versions, applying a load to a material experiencing secondary consolidation would stop the secondary consolidation in the previous stage. This was a bug. The secondary consolidation now correctly stops when the load is applied.
2.	Added error checks when importing load geometry from DXF.
3.	The plain text copy of InfoViewer’s contents now does not have bullets and indentation so it can be easily imported in Excel or Word.
4.	The grid control associated with the "Project Settings--Groundwater-Groundwater Analysis - Depth varies with stage" option is improved to better handle long stage names.
5.	Improved graphics speed of 3D view for large models.
6.	Unit testing was added to improve reliability of future releases..

Version 1.006

1.	Fixed bug that was preventing secondary consolidation in some loading/unloading scenarios.
2.	The mean stress had a bug for materials with Poisson's ratio not equal to 0.2. Fixed.
3.	Separated buoyancy correction and compaction correction into two separate options.
4.	Created cutoff option. If the option is turned on, displacement is not observed when stress is below some user-specified threshold.
5.	Enabled stress/void ratio dependent permeability (for non-linear material only).
6.	Water table can now be specified above the ground surface.
7.	Improved scaling and resizing for Image tool. It can now be resized by dragging the edges or corners.
8.	Fixed bug in stress calculation for some embankments geometries
9.	Infoviewer fixes for updated soil property dialog.
10.	Updated technical support dialog.
11.	Updated help.

Version 1.005

1.	There was a bug with the calculation of embankment load for cases where some embankment coordinates are negative. Fixed.
2.	Changed string discretization so that there is always a point on the water table.
3.	Disallow excess pore pressures above the water table by default. An option was added to permit excess pore pressures above the water table if the user wishes.

Version 1.004

1.	A new option to account for buoyancy of materials that settle below the water table has been added. The option is turned on in the Advanced Analysis Settings dialog in the Project Settings.
2.	There was a bug for mean stress calculation for non-uniform loading. Fixed.
3.	Improved discretization of point line and grid queries. This will improve accuracy.

Version 1.003

1.	For Degree of Consolidation data type legend is now consistent with the rest and displays MAX values instead of MIN values.
2.	Auto Range for degree of consolidation is always 0 to 100% regardless of data.
3.	If you have multiple point queries or line queries, and then you delete query(s), and then export, it exports data for the deleted queries, as well as existing queries. Fixed.
4.	Autocompute has been improved. You can now specify not to autocompute when adding queries/grids. You can also save the default autocompute settings. A new autocompute settings dialog hass been added.
5.	You can now save the default grid number of points and expansion factor. This is done through a new defaults button in the grid properties dialog.
6.	Fixed the problem with Settle “Copy screen” function. Now OpenGL is drawn the same as on screen.
7.	The infoviewer now writes the correct time units for certain parameters.

Version 1.002

1.	Improved accuracy of pore pressure calculation for models that contain layers with no primary consolidation.
2.	Fixed bug in plotting of total strain .
3.	Program crashed if you switch to 2:1 stress analysis method for embankment with end face loadings. Fixed.
4.	There was a bug for stress calculation in end face embankment loadings. Fixed.
5.	Loading under embankment load for depth beyond 100 had a bug. Fixed.
6.	A new query point 3D drawing mode was added to the display options.
