I am going to use the crack( student version) of plaxis 2d to analysis road slope instability because i have no chance to get and buy full version of the software. So could this largely affect my test result? and is there any possibility to get full version of the software.
Thank you in advance.

If you need to calculate the safety factor, stresses and strains, I suggest you to use this free FEM code:

Dear Eshetu Tufa Senti ,
As said by Prof. G. Russo, the cracked versions are not reliable. However, when the license version is not available; cracked version result can be checked or validated or compered with license version software available with your colleagues or friends. Thanks

Hi, the cr* version are not very reliable when you use the water.
You can use a free software, as

or the above mentioned Adonis,
or you can refer to other discussions:

I understand that Plaxis is very easy software, and it is the natural first choice. I don't agree the policy of Plaxis related to the university: no very special offers, no great discounts.
At the opposite, the Rocscience (www.rocscience.com) put a great attention to the university licences. Check with your tutor or with IT dep. of the university. The RS2 software, for example (former Phase2) is a great software and very easy to learn. Related to the slope analisys, you also can insert the fracture sets, and this is very important into check the behaviour in case of rock slope problem

Dear Eshetu, it is very improper to ask questions about cracked versions of licenced software in academic forums like this. Do you realise that there are legal implications for the use of illegally obtained software? There are a lot of other chat rooms were you may raise such questions anonymously.
Try freeware instead. It should be adequate for your needs. By the way it is the responsibility of your university to supply student with tools necessary to accomplish their academic tasks. There are proper student versions of engineering software licensed to universities which are fine for simple to moderately demanding slope stability analysis.
Great respect for your constructive suggestions and answers. Thanks all!
