Numerical analysis of mixe-mode fracture of brickwork masonry with embedded discontinuity elements [PDF]
, 2011 One of the common pathologies of brickwork masonry structural elements and walls is the cracking associated with the differential settlements and/or excessive deflections of the slabs along the life of the structure. The scarce capacity of the masonry in

Collapse of masonry structures
, 2013 This dissertation examines the collapse of masonry structures in response to large support displacements and horizontal ground accelerations. There are two main classes of masonry structure: arches that thrust, and supporting elements, such as walls and buttresses, which resist the thrust.
