Non-Linear Seismic Analysis of Masonry Buildings

open access: yes, 2010
Non-linear analysis is the most viable tool to get accurate predictions of the actual response of masonry structures under earthquake loading. Analytical methods based on the idealisation of masonry walls with openings as systems of macro-elements allow ...

Simple Homogenisation Model for the Non-Linear Analyses of 3D Masonry Structures

open access: yes, 2017
[EN] In the present paper, a simple homogenisation two-step procedure is proposed for the analyses of both in and out of plane loaded masonry walls and 3D structures.

Non linear reticular models for unreinforced and reinforced masonry analyses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Assessing the collapse load for complex masonry structures, such as historic monuments, is a very hard task and looking for a reliable and suitable procedure considering all the available numerical techniques is still under debate.

Strengthening of unreinforced masonry structures using Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC)

open access: yes, 2016
The majority of existing unreinforced masonry structures are prone to weathering and catastrophic events such as earthquakes. The collapse of non-engineering masonry structures after strong earthquakes is one of the greatest causes of serious injuries ...

FEA for masonry structures and vibration-based model updating using NOSA-ITACA

open access: yes, 2018
NOSA-ITACA is a finite-element code developed by the Mechanics of Materials and Structures Laboratory of ISTI-CNR for the structural analysis of masonry constructions of historical interest via the constitutive equation of masonry-like materials.

Repair and conservation of masonry structures

open access: yes, 2019
Numerical modeling of repair and strengthening techniques aimed at improving the mechanical behavior of masonry structures is a challenging task. The complexity of proper models to represent the great variability of existing masonry types and their ...

Masonry behaviour and modelling

open access: yes, 2014
In this Chapter we present the basic experimental facts on masonry materials and introduce simple and refined models for masonry. The simple models are essentially macroscopic and based on the assumption that the material is incapable of sustaining ...

Behaviour of long structures in response to tunnelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper presents observations of the response of long structures when exposed to tunnelling activities in London Clay. The type of structures varied from a 100 years old masonry arch tunnel to a more modern reinforced concrete frame structure.

Vulnerability assessment of monumental masonry structures including uncertainty

open access: yes, 2019
Existing heritage structures are frequently composed of diverse masonry typologies, corresponding either to various structural members (e.g. arches, walls, piers) or to additions constructed in different eras.

Experimental testing and numerical modelling of infill masonry walls subjected to in-plane damage

open access: yes, 2014
This work presents experimental test results obtained on clay unit masonry infill walls for framed structures. Tests were carried out on one-bay, real scale reinforced concrete frames, by imposing in-plane cyclic displacements at the frame top beam until
