This List will be updated as new Midas GTS NX webinars have been held and announced!
Here are some dates for upcoming webinars which have been announced by Midas:
    •  Expert Webinar - Evaluating the stability of landslide and geostructures with numerical analyses - 1 April 2016

Previous Webinars:
1. Limit Equilibrium vs 2D FEM vs 3D FEM of Embedded Retaining Wall in Birmingham New St
This webinar is interesting and provides a summary of research project with a contiguous piled retaining wall analysed in Midas GTS NX in both 2D and 3D. The selected geometry, construction staging and site conditions are from a project where excavation where made for a rainwater tank in Birmingham.

2. Evaluating the stability of landslide and geostructures with numerical analyses
This webinar goes through the methods and paths for assessing the stability of landslide and geo-structure. Both simple and complex cases are shown with step-by-step description in both 2D and 3D.
