Damage indicators for unreinforced masonry building walls subjected to seismic actions [PDF]
Građevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije, 2017 Energy dissipation and stiffness degradation are important seismic performance indicators within the numerical modelling of structures, and in this case particularly of masonry.

ce/papers, 2018 AbstractA correct design project should not only control the load‐bearing capacity and stability of the individual elements but also ensure proper cooperation between these elements. Connection of masonry walls is crucial for durability of the building, safety of its users, and thermal insulation of external walls.

Experimental evaluation of shear and compression strength of masonry wall before and after reinforcement: Deep repointing [PDF]
, 2008 Masonry presents some inadequacies due to its almost total lack of tensile strength. Typical damage to multiple leaf walls during earthquakes is the loss of bond between the leaves with consequent collapse of the external leaf.

Non-Linear Seismic Analysis of Masonry Buildings [PDF]
, 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 ...

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2000 In practice a lot of cases are found, that loadbearing masonry walls of buildings are cracked. The main reason of these cracks is reinforced or metal lintel, reinforced concrete floors, waist-band and other elements.

The Failure of Masonry Walls by Disaggregation and the Masonry Quality Index [PDF]
Heritage, 2020 The visual method for assessment of the structural behaviour of historic masonry walls, known by the acronym MQI (Masonry Quality Index) was introduced in 2002 by a team of researchers from the University of Perugia, Italy. This is based on a visual survey of the faces and the cross section of a wall panel, and it aims at verifying if a wall complies ...

Multi‐Scale Bionic Structure Constructs Biomass Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulation Foam Material
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by mussel adhesion and hierarchical brick‐and‐mortar architectures, a cellulose‐based biomimetic foam is constructed by anchoring bentonite nanosheets onto a polydopamine‐decorated cellulose nanofiber network. The resulting foam combines low thermal conductivity with intrinsic flame retardancy and full biodegradability, presenting a ...

Out-of-plane in situ cyclic testing of unreinforced stone masonry walls with distributed loads [PDF]
, 2012 The present paper reports an in situ experimental test campaign carried out on existing buildings, in order to investigate the seismic behaviour of traditional masonry walls subject to out-of-plane loads.

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Coëby Neolithic cemetery, located in the commune of Trédion (Morbihan, France) and discovered in 1986, has been for several years the subject of a research programme focused on studying the various megalithic structures present. The spatial distribution of these remains highlights an unusual occupation of the territory, organized according
