E-Demo 2:
E-demo 2 illustrates detailed steps for setting up a finite element mesh and importing the results for a 3 130 mm O.D. steel pipe of thin wall design installed in 6.0 m deep benched trench installation. A total of 4 different soil material zones are used to represent the in situ soil, bedding, structural backfill and embankment material. The construction process is simulated by installing the pipe and placing the backfill soils in 7 construction increments.

Purpose: E-demo 2 illustrates detailed steps for creating a finite element mesh consisting of steps for: 1) mesh design, 2) assign intelligence, 3) conduct analysis and 4) import results. It further presents examples of program output that can be displayed. It is intended to cover most of the steps involved in creating a finite element mesh.
