PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.2.1 (23.2.1.1079), superseding PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.2.0 (23.2.0.1059), contains the following improvements and updates compared to PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.1:
Compatibility notes:Due to the major changes in the material database and the unit system, PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.2.1 will be installed alongside Version 21, instead of overwriting it. When opening PLAXIS 2D/3D V21 projects with PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.2.1, projects will automatically be saved as a converted copy with the _converted suffix and will require recalculation. When using non-SI-units, the mesh also needs to be regenerated. The PLAXIS 2D/3D CONNECT Edition V21 projects will remain unchanged. Earlier versions of PLAXIS will not be able to open files saved in PLAXIS 2D/3D 2023.2.1.

New features
Import cross section materials from Seequent Central
When importing cross sections from Central via the "Import Geometry from Central" option, the geological formation names and colours used in Leapfrog are now also used to automatically create and assign materials with corresponding names and colours to the created polygons in PLAXIS 2D. This allows the user to easily double-check and verify the correctness of the import and proceed with selecting the material models and parameter input. Importing of cross sections from Central requires a valid Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement and a Seequent Central license.
Combine polygon command
The combine polygon command available through the command line and the right mouse button context menu allows users to combine a selection of 2 or more polygons to be combined into 1 single polygon. The selection order of the polygons is considered and allows the user to determine which of the assigned materials or features are retained after the merging of multiple polygons. This feature can help in simplifying geometry imported from Central or CAD files and to optimize the numerical mesh, i.e. to combine thin layers, lenses or intrusions into the surrounding soil or rock, or to remove layer pinch outs after cutting polygons.
Import from GeoStudio 2D (Tech. Preview)
Swiftly transfer your geometry and assigned soil or rock materials from a GeoStudio 2D analysis to PLAXIS 2D using the new "Import GeoStudio 2D" option. Users can select a *.gsz project and import any of the 2D geometries contained inside the GeoStudio project file, whether it is a Slope/W, Seep/W or Sigma/W project. This feature is available as a technology preview and while the import has been tested, it will be less robust compared to regular features. Users may encounter some limitations on the supported data conversion when using this feature. Use of this feature requires a valid Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement.
Export to GeoStudio 2D (Tech. Preview)
From the Staged construction mode users can access the "Export GeoStudio 2D" option. The user can select one of the defined construction stages in PLAXIS 2D, select the intended slip surface direction, and export that as a single GeoStudio 2D *.gsz file. This allows users to continue in GeoStudio 2D for further limit equilibrium analysis on each exported phase. This feature is available as a technology preview and while the export has been tested, it will be less robust compared to regular features. Users may encounter some limitations on the supported data conversion when using this feature. Use of this feature requires a valid Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement.
Python scripting changes
SciTe version upgraded from 3.6.4 32 bits to 5.3.3 64 bits. And PySide2 was replaced with PyQt5 as the GUI framework for Python applications.
PLAXIS is part of Seequent, The Bentley Subsurface Company
PLAXIS is part of Seequent, Bentley's brand for subsurface modelling and analysis applications. As part of this transition, the versioning, logos and splash screens used in various places in the software and installer have seen some minor changes.
Other changes and improvements
- All references commands, captions and tools for the "Cable bolt element" have been renamed to "Cable element" in line with the introduction of the Cable element in PLAXIS 3D.
- The 2D to 3D converter tool now also converts cable elements.
- Changed model name in bbm64.dll from "UnSaturated model" to "Barcelona Basic Model".

New features
Cable element
Added cable element and material type to simulate rock reinforcement like grouted cables or frictional/grouted bolts that work mostly in tension/compression. The Material definition includes the input of bond stiffness and bond strength parameters in line with rock engineering practice. Other capabilities include confining stress dependency and pre-stressing the element. The cable element is available in all product tiers.
Import of surfaces from Seequent Central (Tech. Preview)
Surfaces created in Leapfrog that have been published to Central can be imported directly into PLAXIS 3D with the new "Import Surfaces from Central" option. This allows users to create their subsurface model in PLAXIS 3D based on the contact surfaces in the Surface Chronology of the Geological Model, as well as the Topography available in the published Leapfrog project. This is a technology preview based on the triangulated surfaces implementation introduced in V22 with certain limitations to the surface representation:
. Steep transitions, sharp edges or corners present in the surface are smoothed out, i.e. open pit geometry, vertical cuts etc.
. Very complex surfaces with high triangle counts cannot be handled and will require simplification on beforehand.
. Nearly closed and closed surfaces cannot be imported correctly, i.e. isolated soil lenses or isolated intrusions. Those will need to be split into separate surfaces on beforehand.
This feature is available as a technology preview and while the import has been tested, it will be less robust compared to regular features. Users will encounter some issues when using this feature. This feature is available in all tiers and requires a valid Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement to use as well as a Central license.
UDSM: SANISAND-MS
SANISAND-MS is a stress ratio controlled, critical state compatible, bounding surface plasticity model formulated to improve the simulation of the drained mechanical response of sands and sandy soils in high-cyclic loading conditions. The model can be used in engineering applications requiring the prediction of strain accumulation under thousands of drained cyclic loadings. SANISAND-MS includes features such as a memory surface subjected to isotropic and kinematic hardening to account for fabric-related effects on the cyclic ratcheting of sands and a kinematic hardening for the yield surface. The model is available as a User Defined Soil Model and can be used in the Advanced tier by specifying the cyclic loading through a succession of plastic analysis phases, or in the Ultimate tier with cyclic loading applied as a dynamic load multiplier in a Dynamic calculation phase. A valid Geotechnical SELECT Entitlement is also required.
