DFN

The DFN apps providfcdafde tools to generate a Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) from your structural data, calibrate it from your sampling data, and analyze the tetrahedral and complex blocks around underground excavations. You can also test your probabilistic ground support system static performance.

The DFN module is made for geotechs that have knowledge about their structural domains.
