Here are some examples of modules available to book now and all include a balanced mixture of theory and interactive workshop exercises/case studies to help reinforce the concepts.

1. Introduction to FEA modelling in geotechnics plus workshop
2. Introduction to validation and verification of FEA models plus workshop
3. Mohr-Coulomb soil model and foundation workshop
4. Nonlinear analysis and advanced soil model workshop
5. An introduction to 2D FEA for tunnelling and underground space
6. Undrained analysis using FEA including workshop
7. Basement construction using the FEA method
8. Advanced 2D FEA for tunnelling and underground space
9. Multi-stage excavation and groundwater modelling workshop
10. Slope Stability with the FEA method and workshop
11. Introduction to three-dimensional (3D) FEA modelling and case studies
