Rocscience RS3 v4.039 – Advanced 3D Finite Element Analysis for Geotechnical & Mining Engineering

Rocscience RS3 v4.039 is the latest and most powerful release of the industry-leading 3D finite element analysis (FEA) software for geotechnical engineers, mining professionals, and civil infrastructure specialists.
Released July 16, 2025, this version delivers improved stability, bug fixes, performance boosts, and usability enhancements that make it the most reliable and fastest RS3 ever.

With RS3, you can simulate complex geotechnical problems in three dimensions—including slope stability, excavations, tunneling, embankments, retaining structures, and groundwater interactions—with unmatched accuracy and speed. The new GPU-accelerated solvers make handling massive models with millions of elements not only possible but fast.

🚀 What’s New in RS3 v4.039

While v4.039 focuses on stability and bug resolution, it builds on the massive performance and feature upgrades from earlier 4.03x versions. Key improvements include:

Bug Fixes

• Resolved computation halts that occurred after the first stage in multi-stage models using non-Automatic solver options.

• Fixed CAD view freezing issues when certain boundary conditions were displayed.

• Minor interface and stability adjustments for smoother workflow and better user experience.

Recent Feature Highlights from v4.038

• New Solver Options: GPU-accelerated iterative and direct solvers for up to 18× faster computation on large models (2M+ elements).

• Advanced Contour Plane Editing: Directly modify contour plane orientation and location for precise visualization control.

• Scene Manager: Organize and navigate complex models with multiple stages and geometries more efficiently.

• Improved Projected Load Tools: Renamed and enhanced functionality for better bolt and load projection with cleaner mesh generation.

• Tunnel Creation Enhancements: Manipulate viewport and geometry simultaneously during tunnel creation for improved modeling speed.
