Engineering Structures, 2023 A 3D limit analysis model specialized in the analysis at the collapse of massive masonry structures subjected to seismic loads is proposed. The approach belongs to the wide family of distinct element methods, because is based on a discretization of the structure by means of infinitely resistant hexahedron elements and quadrilateral interfaces where all

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019 Abstract This work aims to investigate the environmental friendliness of building materials, and in particular the benefit of using biogenic products as replacement of conventional materials. The sustainability of wood as a construction material is a complex issue since the environmental impacts are strongly related to forest management,
