Seismic vulnerability assessment of free-standing massive masonry columns by the 3D Discrete Element Method

Engineering Structures, 2021
Abstract Free-standing masonry column is a recurrent typology of built cultural heritage. Usually raised without seismic design, columns are subject to intense rocking and overturning under strong ground motions. In this paper, a strategy to assess their seismic vulnerability using the 3-D Discrete Element Method is proposed.

Hygric performance of a massive masonry wall: How do the mortar joints influence the moisture flux?

Construction and Building Materials, 2013
Abstract Although masonry walls are a composite of mortar and brick, in numerical simulations the actual composition is often simplified to a homogenous brick layer. This article studies the impact of the mortar joints and the interface resistance for a massive masonry wall exposed to climate conditions.
