    Hey, thank you for replying to my question. The thing is my focus changed and I am actually trying to convert FLAC 3D mesh into TOUGH mesh that’s why I am using the matlab code but I am getting an error ! I will defintely try your python code but I have a question about your code. Do I need to download an add on in python to make it run? Thank you

      Floriane Youzan Your command is wrong:

      zone create brick size (37,28,6) point 0 (1890,2300,6) point 1 (7400,2300,6) point 2 (7400,5471,6) point 3 (1890,5471,6)

      This will create a flat brick mesh as the one you provided earlier.

      Floriane Youzan From my understanding, the four points must form a right-handed coordinate basis, which means that a unit brick with origin (0, 0, 0) can be defined by this set of points:

      - point 0 (0, 0, 0)

      - point 1 (1, 0, 0)

      - point 2 (0, 1, 0)

      - point 3 (0, 0, 1)

      Keurfon Luu hello,  I need your help again please.I think the size of my mesh is wrong. The whole area is x=7403 m , y =  5471 and z =600 with dx =200 dy = 200 and dz = 100 so I divided x/dx, y/dy and z/dz to create my mesh but it turns out the zone create brick size(37,28,6) is not the representation of the original area I am trying to create. Do you think you can help please?

      Floriane Youzan I think it would be more beneficial for the TOUGH community to discuss on this forum rather than by private emails.

      Keurfon Luu okay makes sense. Do you know how to simulate the deformation of the soil cause by fluid flow ( withdrawal of fluid flow) both in tough and FLAC?

    Hello. Youzan. I'm searching for a way how to buy the tough-flac simulator. Even your question was about two years ago. If you can still catch up with the message, could you help to show me the way?

    I found the tough2/3 simulator, and I have the flac3d software. But I haven't seen the code for coupling these two softwares.

      Aurora Yu you haven't seen the code for coupling these two because there doesn't exist one.

      All software couplings are done by researchers which is their own work. hence its not available. You might have to contact someone who has done it and seek hep for the same.
