RSData: Material Models Made Easy
As 2020 nears its end, Rocscience is finishing off the year on a high note with the introduction of the newly revamped program, RSData. Formerly know as RocData, RSData is Rocscience’s newest tool for studying, analyzing and calibrating your material models.
RSData: Triaxial Test of NorSand Material Model
Coming this December, Rocscience is introducing your next essential tool for studying, analyzing and calibrating your material models: RSData. In this article we demonstrate how RSData helps you study complex material behaviour and perform test simulations by taking a look at the Norsand Material Model. In this example we compare three sets of data: the simulation done by Michael Jeffries, the Fraser River Sand experimental data, and the simulation done in RSData.
The Precursor to RSData: Hoek-Brown Failure Criterion
How did RSData come to be? It was inspired by the Hoek-Brown Failure Criterion, a method designed to connect observational data of rock mass strength to analytical calculations.
1990 – 2020: The 30 Years of RocData
We’re going to take you through the last 30 years and showcase how RocData evolved into RSData. Have a look at the innovation that has happened over the last three decades to make this product into what it is today.
