RS2 (Phase2 9.0) is a powerful 2D finite element program for soil and rock applications (RS2 = Rock and Soil 2-dimensional analysis program). RS2 can be used for a wide range of engineering projects and includes excavation design, slope stability, groundwater seepage, probabilistic analysis, consolidation, and dynamic analysis capabilities.
With RS2, complex and multi-stage projects can be easily analyzed with a wide range of supporting modeling options and various material models, such as Mohr
Coulomb, Generalized Hoek-Brown and Cam-Clay. One of its major features is that finite element slope stability analysis can be performed using the shear strength reduction method. It also includes steady state, finite element groundwater seepage analysis, which is built right into the program.
