Flac3D is not available for downloading anymore. However, you still have the possibility to download version 5.0 of the software from its official website. The product is delivered as a demo version but you have the possibility to buy it afterwards.
I want to model a drained triaxial compression test on a cylindrical specimen in FLAC3D. I just don't know how to model the cylinder. How can I do it?

There are tutorials you can use to model your cylindrical specimen. I recommend checking the tutorials on Google. I have found videos explaining how to extrude a model. Basically, you have to create a circle, then Extrude it as long as you want. To create a hole, create another circle on the base circle and place it in the middle. Use CUT then continue through the extruded axis.
I want to calculate the cylinder volume changes with respect to time in FLAC3D. The volume of this cylindrical cavern which lies underground, changes under creep displacement. The field stress state is hydrostatic and cavern's wall is subject to a uniform internal pressure. Can you help?

Unfortunately, there isn't any tutorial or guide that will help you model the cylindrical cavern using these parameters. My recommendation is to contact Itasca Consulting Group, the developers of FLAC3D and ask for instructions. You can get in touch with them using Software Support page.
I want to write a constitute model in Flac3d by fish programming. The model is Multi-Mechanism Deformation (M-D) model that used in evaluation of rock mechanical behavior of salt caverns. How do I do that?

The only way to learn how to add models with the help of the fish programming, is through the tutorials available on the official website. Access Google Search results then click on the YouTube video. You will get a glimpse on how to work with models and fish files. Unfortunately, this is the only way when there are no other resources available.
