A F.E. UPPER BOUND LIMIT ANALYSIS MODEL FOR MASONRY CURVED AND 3D STRUCTURES, WITH AND WITHOUT FRPREINFORCEMENT [PDF]

, 2010
The aim of this thesis is to propose a new efficient numerical tool, based on the kinematic theorem of limit analysis, for the study of masonry shell and 3D structures with or without FRP reinforcement. The approach consists of two steps.

Modelling, analysis and testing of masonry structures [PDF]

, 2006
In this thesis, masonry churches under horizontal actions are studied. Such structures feature strong seismic vulnerability, both because of the mechanical properties of the material and the particular configuration.
