Compressive and shear behaviour of masonry panels: experimentation and numerical analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The compressive and shear behavior of masonry is here studied both experimental- ly and numerically. An experimental campaign has been carried out on 9 square-shaped one leaf masonry panels, reproducing historical masonry.

Freeze-thaw risk in solid masonry : are moisture reference years able to represent real climate conditions? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Today, there is no consensus on the selection method of representative exterior boundary conditions when performing HAM (Heat Air Moisture) simulations on building envelopes.

Numerical Modelling and Validation of the Response of Masonry Infilled RC Frames Using Experimental Testing Results

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
Reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry infills represent one of the most common structural typologies worldwide. Although, in the past, masonry infills were frequently considered as non-structural elements and their interaction with the ...

A Modern Roman‐Inspired Concrete with Daytime Radiative Cooling Capacity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Coolcrete, inspired by ancient Roman concrete, is a new cementitious material with photonic properties enabling passive daytime radiative cooling. Made from quicklime and zeolites, it reduces cooling energy demand, lowers CO2 emissions, and may eliminate urban heat islands.

Integrated Electromagnetic Mapping Through K‐Means to Improve Identification of Areas of Archaeological Interest

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a procedure to improve the interpretation of data from the Frequency Domain ElectroMagnetic method (FDEM), a geophysical technique with high benefit–cost ratios in archaeology. This method enables the simultaneous analysis of electrical and magnetic properties of the investigated medium, providing data as in‐phase and out ...

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

The Domus Nozze D'Argento in Pompeii: Structural Diagnosis Using Geophysical Methods

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring of ancient buildings is an issue of great interest in view of a proper restoration. This paper describes the noninvasive monitoring of the Domus Nozze D'Argento in Pompeii. The Roman house, as occurred for many other buildings in Pompei, was buried in the ash from the 79 ad eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Impact of the self-healing agent composition on material characteristics of bio-based self-healing concrete

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2019
This paper investigates the composition of the biological self-healing agent based on its impact on material characteristics of concrete. A direct addition of the agent – a mixture of bacterial spores and nutrients – into concrete matrix has been ...

Numerical model to account for the influence of infill masonry on the RC structures behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
It is a common misconception considers that masonry infill walls in structural RC buildings can only increase the overall lateral load capacity, and, therefore, must always be considered beneficial to seismic performance.
