This training is an introduction to continuous modeling with FLAC2D and FLAC3D. At the end of the course, participants will master the graphical interface, documentation and the main modeling steps. Concepts are illustrated using a tunnel excavation example, from building the model geometry to results analysis. This introductory course provides the foundation for more advanced use of the software, which can be covered in more specific training modules.
In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to map a random point cloud with pore pressure values onto the grid points of a FLAC3D model using python.

The material is intended for those who have some background using Python. If you're new to Python, we recommend that you first review the three-part webinar series "An Introduction to Python Scripting" - Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3, and Using Python in Itasca Software. A background knowledge of Itasca command syntax will also be useful.
