Abstract

This paper describes the object-oriented modeling of geotechnical systems, which is becoming increasingly important due to the dense covering with large structures, predominantly in urban areas, and the growing importance of environmental concerns. Starting with the real world geotechnical system, two partial models are described, the Geotechnical Model and the Geomechanical Model. These models serve as a basis for calculation and administration of such systems. The principals of the new object-oriented software design, which couples GIS, CAD and FEM techniques by interfaces and includes object-oriented DBMS for the administration of different models, and its C++ implementation are presented. The engineering software Geotechnical-Information-System (GTI-System) is presented and illustrated with examples.
