Hi all,
I have a question about the initialization of stresses in FLAC3D v5.00.
I have a complex model with an irregular topography. I set the gravity with the command

set gravity 0 0 -10

but how can I initialize correctly the stresses? Till now I simply indicate a gradient in each direction starting from the surface, but in this case is not constant.

Somebody can give me an help?

Thank you!
