WAVES computes the dynamic characteristics and seismic response of horizontally layered soil deposits. The soil site is discretized into a finite element mesh of 1D shear elements.
WEAP87 simulates a foundation pile under the action of an impact pile driving hammer. Inputs include: pile length, skin friction and soil parameters.

WEDGE is part of the Prokon suite of programs, but is also available seperately. It is used for the analysis of a tetrahedral wedge formed by the intersection of two planar discontinuities in a rock slope.
Wedge Failure Analysis is a wedge failure analysis package. It includes a stereonet view of the planes the user inputs and a printable summary of the analysis.
WESHAKE estimates the site-specific dynamic response of a layered soil deposit for ground-level conditions.
Wickdrain is a program for estimating wick drain assisted consolidation times and settlements of surcharged compressible soils.
