Numerical simulation of fracture in unreinforced masonry

open access: yes, 2007
The aims of this thesis are to study the fracture behaviour in unreinforced masonry, to carry out a limited experimental program on three-point bending (TPB) masonry panels and to develop a time-dependent fracture formulation for the study of mode I fracture in quasi-brittle materials.

Dynamic Response of Unreinforced Masonry Building

open access: yesJournal of the Earthquake Engineering Society of Korea, 2004
The seismic behavior of a 1/3-scale model of a two-story unreinforced masonry (URM) structure typically used in constructing low-rise residential buildings in Korea is studied through a shaking table test. The purposes of this study are to investigate seismic behavior and damage patterns of the URM structure that was not engineered against seismic ...

Seismic response analysis of concrete block masonry buildings: an experimental study using shaking table [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The combination of a series of structural and economic advantages like the high capacity to resist compressive loads, the simple and easy method of construction, comfort properties and structural performance given for the new masonry structures makes the

Modelling Methods for Unreinforced Masonry Structures

open access: yes, 2013
Studies concerned with evaluation and rehabilitation of historical masonry structures consider structural analysis in order to better understand the seismic behaviour of these buildings, to define the causes for present damage and to asses the safety level for a large variety of actions. Structural analysis such as linear, plastic or nonlinear analysis

Damages of Masonry School Buildings on 2010 Karakocan - Elazig Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Masonary school buildings were damaged very heavly or coolapsed in Karakocan-Elazig-Turkey earthquake with M=6.0 occurred on 08 March 2010 at 04:32 a.m. (local time) at eastern Turkey and caused the loss of life and heavy damages, as well.

Seismic capacity of adobe dwellings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper the seismic capacity of adobe dwellings, in-plane and out-of-plane, is analyzed in terms of the displacement capacity and the period of vibration. For the former, cyclic and dynamic tests carried out at the Catholic University of Peru (PUCP)

Using simplified indices to forecast the seismic vulnerability of New Zealand unreinforced masonry churches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Unreinforced masonry churches are particularly vulnerable to earthquakes because they are often deteriorated and damaged, they were built with comparatively low strength materials, they are heavy, and the connections between the various structural ...

Influence of distinct reinforcing schemes on the shear ressistance of masonry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One of the major concerns about the use of unreinforced masonry in seismic prone regions is its inadequate behavior under seismic loads, which has been shown from recent earthquakes.
