This approach combines BIM and FEM to enhance modeling of block-in-matrix materials, suggesting improved efficiency in capturing material variability.
This paper presents a workflow connecting Ground Models (GM), Building Information Modelling (BIM), and finite element modelling (FEM). Borehole-based voxel models of block-in-matrix formations with matrix variability are imported into Revit, where Dynamo scripts enable visualization and cross-section extraction. Geometry and material data are exported to PLAXIS 2D via Python API, ensuring consistency and automation. The approach saves time and captures block-in-matrix heterogeneity more realistically than conventional homogeneous models.
