Slope Stability - Water Flow

The Slope Stability – Water Flow module allows the determination of the pore pressures in the slope by using the steady state or transient groundwater seepage analysis by the finite element method.

The module is connected directly to the Slope Stability program and can be purchased separately without the need to purchase the FEM program.
