Adriseismic Methodology for Expeditious Seismic Assessment of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings
Buildings, 2023 The paper describes a novel Adriseismic method for expeditious assessment of seismic risk associated with unreinforced masonry buildings. The methodology was developed for the Adriseismic project of the Interreg ADRION programme, with the aim to develop ...

Numerical Simulation of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings with Timber Diaphragms
Buildings, 2021 Though flexible diaphragms play a role in the seismic behaviour of unreinforced masonry buildings, the effect of the connections between floors and walls is rarely discussed or explicitly modelled when simulating the response of such buildings.

Numerical Modeling of Unreinforced Masonry Walls Strengthened with Fe-Based Shape Memory Alloy Strips. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2021 This study presents a new way to improve masonry wall behavior. Masonry structures comprise a significant part of the world’s structures. These structures are very vulnerable to earthquakes, and their performances need to be improved.

COMPAS Masonry: A Computational Framework for Practical Assessment of Unreinforced Masonry Structures [PDF]
12th International Conference on Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions, 2021 In recent years, our (academic/theoretical) understanding of the behaviour of unreinforced masonry (URM) structures has improved significantly, and many advanced technological solutions for conservation have been developed. However, there is still a lack

Applied Sciences, 2023 Unreinforced masonry (URM) is a construction of brick or concrete block unit that is joined together using mortar, without steel reinforcement. Because of the heterogeneous nature and difference in mechanical properties of the masonry elements, analyzing

Review of Out-of-Plane Strengthening Techniques of Unreinforced Masonry Walls
Fibers, 2023 When a seismic load is applied horizontally or laterally on unreinforced masonry walls (URM), the walls behave in two different ways, viz., in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OoP).

Buildings, 2023 Old structures that are made of adobe or brick walls are usually unreinforced and not designed for lateral forces. In-plane loads applied to unreinforced masonry walls (URM) are the usual cause of damage and failure of old buildings.

Computational Modeling of Damage Progression in Unreinforced Masonry Walls via DEM
Turkish Journal of Civil Engineering, 2023 Unreinforced masonry (URM) walls are the common load-bearing elements for old masonry buildings and heritage structures. As witnessed from the past and recent earthquakes, URM walls may demonstrate various collapse mechanisms along with different crack ...
