FLACD3D Workflow

Automate Underground Stope Modeling in FLACD

Reduce modeling time, eliminate repetitive workflow and generate reliable geotechnical analyses with intelligent automation.

CHALLENGES

Engineering Challenges We solved

Limited modeling expertise

advanced numerical modeling requires speacial skills that are scares.

Time - Consuming workflows

Manual mesh generation and model Setup take weeks and engineering time.

High Solution Costs

over- relience on external consultants for routine stability assessment.

Constant Design Changes

mine plans change constantly,rendering static models obsolete quickly.

INTRODUCTION TS.STOPE

The Intelligent Bridge to Advanced Analysis

ts.stope transform complex FLAC3D numerical modeling in to a accessible, automate workflow. By translating standard mine planning geometry into rigorous geotechnical models automatically, we empower engineering teams to focuse on interpretion and design rather than tedious model construction.

Frequently Asked Question

every thing you need to know about implementing ts.STOPE in your engineering workflow.

 The ts.stope module is designed for advanced underground stope modeling and geomechanical analysis. It helps mining engineers and geotechnical specialists simulate stope geometries, evaluate rock mass stability, and optimize extraction sequences to minimize dilution and maximize ore recovery.

 To run an accurate analysis, the model requires key geotechnical and geometric inputs. These typically include rock mass properties (such as UCS, GSI, and intact rock properties), in-situ stress field data, stope dimensions (strike length, width, and height), and structural orientations.

 Yes, it is built with interoperability in mind. The stope geometries, generated meshes, and initial stress parameters can be seamlessly exported to advanced finite difference software like FLAC3D for deeper

By utilizing empirical methods (such as the Stability Graph Method) alongside numerical stress analysis, ts.stope calculates the radius of relaxation and shear failure zones around the excavation. This allows users to reliably estimate potential overbreak (sloughing) and underbreak zones before actual mining begins.
