The insitu topo command also calculates the stresses on joints as shown in the figure. The zones under this unit therefore have reduced stresses. The red circle indicates a geological unit with low density. The higher stresses under the mountains and the lower stresses under the
The calculation takes aĬouple of minutes, depending on the speed of your computer. The figure below shows vertical stress calculated using the insitu topoĬommand for a model with almost 800,000 zones. With the latest update ofģDEC (Version 5.00.168 or above), this function has been sped upĭramatically to make it useful once again. However, this calculation used toīe so slow that is was not of practical use. Stresses often are assumed to be some proportion of the vertical.ģDEC provides a command, insitu topo, to calculate In these situations, the in-situ vertical stress at each pointĬan be calculated from the weight of overlying material. 3DEC is commonly used to model rock masses close to the earth’s
