Product Overview
EX3
Boundary Element Method & Stress Analysis
Perform faster analysis of underground excavations using Boundary Element Method, which only requires meshing of the surface, resulting in simpler and more efficient discretization. Perfect for modelling infinite and simi-infinite elastic domains.
Full Scale Mine Analysis
Define and model large-scale mines with ease using advanced features in EX3. Import geometry, design excavations and backfill in different stages and visualize your results on the surface of the mine and pre-defined field points.
3D Geometry
Import a variety of 3D geometries including *.obj, *.stl, *.dxf, *.dwg, file types then analyze your models to find discrepancies and repair the geometry in minutes.
