A coupling modeling method with MIDAS/GTSFLAC3D was put forward aiming at the technical difficulties and deficiencies in preprocessing for complex geologic body and structural engineering with FLAC3D. The coupling procedure was that
firstly
the threedimension geometry model was built with MIDAS/GTS and the model meshes were divided. And Secondly
the element and node data of the completed model built in MIDAS/GTS were exported. After data was transformed by using the interface program in MATLAB
the information was imported into FLAC3D. Thus the threedimension FLAC3D model for complex engineering was generated coupling with MIDAS/GTS. With coupling method
the complex threedimension model was built for Fanshuigou bridgeShipogou tunnel engineering above minedout region
and the results verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
