A Numerical Strategy to Assess the Stability of Curved Masonry Structures Using a Simple Nonlinear Truss Model

A Numerical Strategy to Assess the Stability of Curved Masonry Structures Using a Simple Nonlinear Truss Model

A straightforward and versatile numerical approach is proposed for the nonlinear analysis of single and double-curvature masonry structures. The method is designed to broaden accessibility to both experienced and less specialized users. Masonry units are discretized with elastic quadrilateral elemen...
