What would you say if I told you Altair’s Geomechanics simulation platform lets you build and solve numerical rock mechanics problems at unpresented speeds (10x to 100x) using advanced technologies like hybrid finite-discrete element methods and GPU computing?

If you find this intriguing, fill out the form to the right to register for our live webinar!

In this webinar for mining users you'll hear from industry expert, Ioannis Vazaios, Senior Geotechnical Engineer at Ove Arup & Partners, and receive an overview of how Altair's Geomechanics Director and Irazu by Geomechanica Inc. (Altair Partner Alliance) can help you analyze complex applications that involve large displacements and fracturing of discontinuous rocks.
