This training is an introduction to continuous modeling with FLAC2D and FLAC3D. At the end of the course, participants will master the graphical interface, documentation and the main modeling steps. Concepts are illustrated using a tunnel excavation example, from building the model geometry to results analysis. This introductory course provides the foundation for more advanced use of the software, which can be covered in more specific training modules.
Two examples are shown here from the Microseismic data recorded following the excavation of the Mine-by gallery at CNL’s (formerly AECL) Underground Research Laboratory.
The first example includes MS waveform data recorded using 16 triaxial receivers surrounding the excavated volume. The example allows having an overview of the Waveform visualiser and the different views (event, instrument, channel). Click here to download a presentation showing
The second example shows the full set of processed MS events, not including waveform data. Click here to download a presentation introducing the data set and instructions on navigating through the main visualisers.
