CESAR LCPC
CESAR-LCPC Is A 2D & 3D Finite Element Package Dedicated To Solve Civil Engineering Problems. User Take Benefits Of A Highly Interactive Graphical User Interface, Powerful Meshing Capabilities, A Wide Variety Of Material Laws And An Extensive Element Library
CESAR-LCPC Package Encompasses All Computational Aspects Of Civil Engineering Structures; It Has Been Designed, Developed And Validated By France’s Laboratoire Central Des Ponts Et Chaussées (LCPC), The National Research Laboratory For Roads And Bridges ( Www.Lcpc.Fr ).
CESAR-LCPC Is The Outcome Of Many Years Of Research And Development; The Package Embodies The Range Of Competence Acquired By LCPC Teams Of Engineers And Acknowledged By Top Civil Engineering Specialists The World Over.
Continuous Research And Development At LCPC Ensures That CESAR-LCPC Keeps Up With The Evolving Needs Of The Civil Engineering Sector.
Main Applications The Main Applications For CESAR-LCPC In Geotechnical Engineering Are:
➤ Design Of Underground Structures: Tunnels, Mines, Storage Facilities, Deep Excavations…
➤ Design Of Shallow And Deep Foundations (Settlements And Soil Failure Analysis)
➤ Design Of Pavement Structures And Embankments
➤ Slope Stability Analysis: Cut Or Fill For Highways, Reinforced Slopes, Earth Retaining Structures …
➤ Seepage, Dewatering And Consolidation Analyses
The Main Applications For CESAR-LCPC In Structural Engineering Are:
➤ Design Of Steel, Concrete Or Composite Bridges
➤ High Buildings And Industrial Facilities
C-Tunnel C-Tunnel Is A Product From The New Generation Of Specialist Applications Developed By Itech. Dedicated To The Pre-Design Of Underground Structures By Means Of Finite Element Method, C-Tunnel Was Developed In Collaboration With The CETU (French Research Centre Dedicated To The Design, Construction, Maintenance And Operational Management Of Road Tunnels).
C-Tunnel Combines State-Of-The-Art Analysis Methods Validated By The CETU With A Modern Graphical User Interface Characterised By Its Intuitiveness And Its User-Friendliness. It Integrates All The Specific Tools Necessary To Achieve The Pre-Design Of Tunnels And To Be Applicable To As Many Tunnel Geometries And In Situ Configurations As Possible.
➤ Integrated Suite Of Programs
➤ User-Friendly Environment
➤ Comprehensive Graphical Output
➤ Integrated Contextual Help
➤ Compatibility With Standards
➤ Low-Cost Modular System
➤ Various Language Versions
➤ Permanent Customer Support
C-Tunnel Allows Carrying Out A Tunnel Pre-Design In An Optimized Amount Of Time. This Is Achieved Thanks To An Entirely Guided And Parameterised Model Generation Process, Including The Use Of Templates For Geometry Description And The Guided Definition Of Calculation Stages.
➤ Parametric Geometry Definition
➤ Layered Soil Formations,
➤ Automatic Definition Of The Steps Of The Calculation
➤ Top Heading And Bench Excavation,
➤ Application Of Groundwater Load On Impermeable Lining,
➤ Parametric Study: Definition Of Variation Ranges
➤ For Parametric Study, Eased Comparison Of Results, …
➤ Calculations With The Famous FEM Solver CESAR LCPC
ALIZE-LCPC, Developed By LCPC, Is A Professional Tool Used For The Mechanical Design And The Check Against Freezing-Thaw Of Pavement Structures.
It Implements The “Rational Method” Of Mechanical Design, Developed By LCPC And SETRA.
The Rational Method The Primary Purpose Of The Rational Method Is To Oversee The Design Operations Of New Road And Highway Pavements, For All Categories Of Traffic (Running The Gamut From Low-Traffic Pavements To High-Traffic Pavements). Within This Application Context, The Design Approach, The Set Of Associated Hypotheses And The Tools To Be Implemented Have Been Fully Laid Out.
Moreover, The General Rational Design Approach Has Been The Focus Of A Variety Of Transpositions, Aimed At Its Adaptation To Other Types Of Design: Differing Traffic Loads (E.G. Industrial Carriers, Airport Loads), Other Design Problem Areas (E.G. Reinforcement Of Damaged Pavements). The ALIZE-LCPC Software Is Also Applicable To These Specific Uses, Without Its Implementation Conditions Being Necessarily, In This Case, Entirely Contained Within An Official Method.
In Any Event, This Software Facilitates The Practical Running Of Numerical Computations Required For Designing Pavement Structures.
Check Against Freezing-Thaw ALIZE-LCPC Software Includes Two Checking Methods Against Freezing-Thaw: A Simplified Method (1994 Guide) And A Complete Method (Fourier Method). This Second Approach Calls The GEL1D Computation Module That Predicts The Evolution Of The Freezing Fringe In The Road Structure. This Method Produces More Accurate Results Than The Simplified Methodi.
