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.
Latest Version: 3.00.4 (Description) Released On: 星期六, 7月 12, 2025
Griddle v3 requires Rhinoceros 3D 8.0 to be installed first.
Quick Start for Griddle 3.0 and Rhino
Griddle 3.0 is a suite of tools for surface- and volume-meshing within the Rhino CAD system. Griddle 3.0 is installed as a Rhino plugin and is only available for the Windows versions of Rhino 8 or newer.
The Griddle 3.0 installer automatically removes all previous versions of Griddle installed on the machine, including those for Rhino 5 and later.
Rhino is required to be installed before Griddle installation.
First Time Use After Installation
If the toolbar is not visible after the installation, follow the steps below:
Note: the toolbar may be floating outside of the Rhino workspace.
[1] Griddle 1.0 used Rhino integration tools and required a multi-step installation process (separate installation of plugins for each command, toolbars, and scripts). Griddle 3.0 operates differently – it installs all components at once. During the installation, Griddle 3.0 attempts to remove all older versions from the system, but some parts may remain and should be removed manually.
The Griddle manual and Tutorials can be downloaded from: http://docs.itascasoftware.com/.
RELEASE Version
Note: If Griddle toolbar is not visible after the installation, navigate to Rhino's top menu: Tools > Options > Toolbars, select Griddle from the dropdown list on the top-right and enable the toolbar.
