Numerical Modeling & Soil Structure Interaction

At M2, numerical modeling is at the heart of how we bridge theory and field performance. We develop high-fidelity models that simulate soil behavior, seismic loads, and structure-ground interaction, allowing our clients to make informed, risk-mitigated decisions before construction begins.

Advanced Analysis Capabilities Include:

  • Finite Element & Finite Difference Modeling

    We apply advanced FEA/FDM tools to simulate geotechnical problems with nonlinearity, complex geometries, and coupled behaviors.

  • Seismic Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI)

    Modeling dynamic interactions between foundations and superstructures to optimize seismic design and performance.

  • Deep Excavation & Retaining Wall Simulations

    Evaluation of support systems under active/passive pressures and ground movements during staged construction.

  • Settlement & Deformation Predictions

    We use constitutive soil models to forecast short- and long-term settlements under various load conditions.

  • Liquefaction & Lateral Spreading Modeling

    High-resolution simulations of seismic-induced deformation to guide mitigation and structural detailing.

  • Slope & Landslide Analysis

    Coupled static and seismic analysis of natural and engineered slopes using limit equilibrium and numerical approaches.

  • Pavement and Embankment Performance

    Modeling the geotechnical behavior of linear infrastructure under dynamic loading and environmental influences.
