Geotechnical engineering

CESAR is a calculation software enabling modelling and analysis of geotechnical problems. Proven, powerful and user-friendly, it covers a wide scope of soil and rock mechanics applications (deformation, stability...). It is a valuable tool for geotechnical engineers for embankment, excavation, foundation or tunnel studies, and more.

Deformation and stability

CESAR is bundled with an extensive constitutive model library (linear and non-linear elasticity, Mohr-Coulomb, Hardening Soil, Cam-Clay...) relevant to the study of deformations and stresses in soil masses.

Consolidation analysis (coupling) allows the study of primary and secondary settlement of soil masses.

Finally, CESAR features the required calculation procedures in order to obtain safety coefficients in regards to stability (c-phi reduction procedure) or stresses (e.g. limit pressure search).
