Notes on the Advanced Analysis Options Dialog options

Plastic Radius -- must be in units consistent with the reference stress specified in the The Soil Model Properties Dialog. For Free Field modeling, this value is constant. For Calibration Chamber modeling, this value is adjusted iteratively during computations until the cavity diameter equals the cone diameter specified. NOTE: if this value is specified to be greater than the chamber radius, calibration chamber analysis will fail and return an error.

Element Thickness Divisor -- this value specifies the number of elements used to subdivide the plastic zone during the first iteration in the analysis.

OK / Cancel -- clicking 'OK' will store the present settings in memory for the next time an input scenario is added. Clicking 'cancel' will do nothing. Both buttons return you to the Add Analysis Scenario Dialog.
