Will you be at the ISRM 2023 Congress in #Salzburg, Austria? We have some exciting news for you. isrm2023.com/en/program#/Wo… We're hosting a dedicated half-day workshop that delves into the practical application of PLAXIS for underground excavation in rock material.
"Most people have no idea how beautiful the world is and how much magnificence is revealed in the tiniest things, in some flower, in a stone, in tree bark, or in a birch leaf." — Rainer Maria Rilke via the 5-Bullet Friday newsletter tim.blog/fbf from @tferriss
Are you attending the 57th US Rock Mechanics / Geomechanics Symposium in Atlanta? Stop by booth #7, meet our team and learn more about Seequent's and GHD's article on how FEM can accurately predict ground formation behaviour and structural forces during tunnel excavation.
Will you be at ARMA2023? The technical program will focus on advances and innovative applied research in rock mechanics and geomechanics, and we are contributing. lnkd.in/gW6T8CKK! Make sure to listen to Giuseppe Cammarata's presentation.
Calling all UK undergrad #engineering students! Have you used #simulation techniques like finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, or #FEA for your project? Apply now for the Outstanding Undergraduate Project Award and showcase your talent! ow.ly/3tGP50N2aJJ
Hurry up! 🚀 Wanna get a quick start using #PLAXIS by understanding and using finite elements and the basics of soil modelling? events.seequent.com/plaxisstandard… Learn to apply PLAXIS for excavation and embankment problems, calculate factors of safety and modelling groundwater.

For 500 days I've written 500 words of Morning Pages. While they're usually just brain dumps, I'll sometimes reflect on specific questions. As @tferriss says, if you want better answers, ask better questions. -My Top 10 Reflection Questions (and where I got them)- [THREAD]
Cool tunnel generation!
