This session explores the core principles of Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) and innovative integration solutions between Midas geotechnical and structural platforms. We share practical expertise in applying both the Substructure Method and Soil Continuum Method to overcome the engineering challenge of balancing soil variability with structural precision. Participants will discover how to implement a next-generation SSI strategy that optimizes design and reduces modeling time through NX Interact, an API-based automated workflow between GTS NX and CIVIL/GEN NX.

Description
In this session, we will explore advanced methodologies for Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) analysis, focusing on the seamless integration between Midas geotechnical and structural engineering platforms. The complex interplay of stiffness and deformation between soil and structure requires a sophisticated approach that moves beyond traditional idealized models. Achieving high-fidelity analysis that accounts for real-world geotechnical features—such as soil plasticity, pile group effects, and complex strata—while maintaining structural design integrity is a critical challenge for modern engineers.
This session aims to delve into these technical nuances and share practical strategies for implementing both the Substructure Method and the Soil Continuum Method. Participants will discover how to leverage the NX Interact function to automate iterative data transfer via API between GTS NX and CIVIL/GEN NX, significantly reducing modeling time and enhancing design optimization. Through detailed case studies of critical structures like integral bridges and deep excavations, attendees will gain in-depth insights into building an organic, high-performance workflow that ensures absolute structural accuracy from the ground up.
