We are very pleased to announce an all-new Chinese language option for GeoStudio 2007. All menus, dialog boxes, and user messages can now be displayed in Chinese. You can even generate a report of your results, with all text displayed in Chinese.

Our thanks to CnTech Co., Ltd. for their invaluable help with the Chinese translation. You can attend one of the upcoming workshops in Shanghai and Wuhan to learn more about modeling with the GeoStudio Chinese language version.

In addition to the Chinese language option, we have been working on bug fixes and improving the stability of the software. Version 7.16 is a free upgrade and will be a beneficial upgrade for all GeoStudio 2007 customers. See the Release Notes for a full list of the improvements that we have made.

Detailed Example: Bangkok Wickdrain Study

In anticipation of the construction of a new airport in Bangkok, full-scale test embankments were constructed on the soft clay at the site to study the effectiveness of prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) for accelerating the consolidation and dissipation of the excess pore-pressures resulting from fill placement. The results of the field tests have been studied and analyzed by two different research groups: one at the Asian Institute of Technology in Thailand, the other at the University of Wollongong in Australia.

We have re-analyzed portions of this case history to demonstrate how GeoStudio 2007 can be used to model the effect of PVDs in the consolidation of soft soils.

Read the Detailed Example, and then download the free GeoStudio 2007 Viewer License and follow along using the three related data files.
