Global FEM Online Workshop Series 2025 Session 4. Modeling of Contenious Helix Piles September 10, 2025 - 03:00 & 08:00 GMT (30min)

This session demonstrates the modeling and analysis of continuous helix screw piles in GTS NX, validated with real-world data from full-scale field tests. You’ll see how to overcome one of the most challenging aspects in FEM software — meshing a full 3D helix — and how GTS NX allows you to achieve this without oversimplifying the geometry into basic plates. From geometry creation to mesh refinement and result extraction, this session covers the complete workflow for accurate, efficient deep foundation analysis.

 

✳️ Who Should Attend

  • Geotehcnical engineers interested in deep foundation analysis and design

 

✳️ Why Should Join 

  • Building mesh for complex geometry
  • Using the auto connect tool to insure the integrity of the different mesh sets
  • Using mesh control to refine the mesh in important narrow parts to avoid concentration of stresses.
  • How to decrease the size of your file by avoiding unnecessary results recording.
  • How to decrease the amount of analysis time without hurting accuracy too much.
  • After analysis, extract section forces using the LDF tool

 

✳️ What You'll Take Away

  • Mesh control, control over the type of desired results required, reduce analysis time
