GEOSLOPE develops GeoStudio, the leading suite of geo-engineering software used in over 100 countries for the last 40 years. Join thousands of practising engineers, scientists, regulators, professors and students, and start using GeoStudio today

GeoStudio 2022.1 continues our journey to a digital twin with greater interoperability between Leapfrog geological modelling and GeoStudio geotechnical analysis with the new multiple section workflow. Immerse yourself in 3D with the new GeoStudio 3D FLOW. 3D FLOW couples all new CTRAN3D and AIR3D analyses with those from SEEP3D and TEMP3D for even more flexibility in environmental modelling.

Seamless integration, unparalleled analysis capabilities
The integrated GeoStudio software suite enables you to combine multiple analyses using different products into a single modeling project.

Use this approach to model construction sequences, establish initial conditions, perform sensitivity analyses, model complex time sequences, or simply decompose a complex problem into a number of smaller, more manageable analyses.

GeoStudio Basic Edition includes elementary features of SLOPE/W, SEEP/W, SIGMA/W, QUAKE/W,TEMP/W, CTRAN/W, AIR/W and VADOSE/W for solving slope stability and related geotechnical analyses at a low pricing. GeoStudio Basic is licensed for engineering consulting use.

The Basic Edition is ideal for use in routine engineering practice for the analysis of problems with limited geometric complexity. It is licensed for engineering consulting use and is available as a Perpetual Standalone License only.

Broad Reach
While primarily intended for analyzing the stability of natural and man-made earth slopes, you can also use GeoStudio Basic for the analysis of confined and unconfined steady-state seepage problems, for the analysis of linear-elastic settlement and stress distribution problems, for the tracking of contaminants within ground water flow, for the analysis of freeze-thaw problems, and for 1D vadose zone and soil cover analyses.

Modeling Practice
A common tendency when using powerful modeling software is to build numerical models that are geometrically too complex. The geometric complexity is usually not required to obtain meaningful results. In fact, we at GEO-SLOPE strongly advocate that a numerical model should be a simplified abstraction of the actual field conditions. Adopting this modeling principle makes GeoStudio Basic a very powerful analytical tool for use in practice in spite of its geometric limitations.

Evaluation and Upgrading
GeoStudio Basic allows you to evaluate a very high-end geotechnical software package with a minimal investment. Starting with GeoStudio Basic is an excellent strategy. Once you are comfortable with using the software and you find that your projects dictate analyzing more complexity, you can upgrade to the full-featured version. Everything that you have learned and done with the Basic Edition will be directly usable in the full-featured edition. Nothing will be lost by first acquiring the Basic Edition and subsequently acquiring the full-featured edition.

VADOSE/W Basic
The included VADOSE/W Basic puts the power in your hands to solve complex 1D vadose zone and soil cover analyses accurately and confidently. VADOSE/W Basic includes the same geometric limitations as the rest of the GeoStudio Basic suite, with the additional restriction that all elements must be in a 1D column.

Easy to Use
Defining a Problem
Beginning an analysis is as simple as defining the geometry by drawing regions and lines that identify soil layers. Once drawn, you would choose an analysis method, specify soil properties and pore-water pressures, define reinforcement loads, and create your trial slip surfaces.

Viewing the Results
Once an analysis is solved, the results can be viewed in a variety of ways
-Display the minimum slip surface and factor of safety together, or view each one individually.

-View information about the critical slip surface, including the total sliding mass, a free body diagram and a force polygon showing the forces acting on each slice.

-Contour the factors of safety, or show plots of computed parameters. The prepare the results for your report by adding labels, axes, and pictures, or export the results into other applications such as Microsoft® Excel® for further analysis.
