Graphical results:
Deformations in y-direction:
Deformations in x-directions:
From 2D geostatic analysis the deformations along the y-directions are constant from 400m domains size.
Therefore, 400m domain size (including raft width 80m) is considered.
For a total width of raft(80m), the domain size is 2 times the raft width at each side (160m or 2B)
For a half width of raft (40m considering only half width of raft) the domain size is 4 times the half width
of raft (160m or 4b).
