Journal ArticleDOI
Scale{dependent homogenization of random composites as micropolar continua
TL;DR: In this paper, a homogenization procedure for disordered Cosserat-type materials without assuming any spatial periodicity of the microstructures is presented, and two hierarchies of scale-dependent bounds on classical and micropolar elastic moduli are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-linear micropolar and classical continua for anisotropic discontinuous materials
TL;DR: In this article, an integral procedure of equivalence in terms of mechanical power has been adopted to identify the effective elastic moduli of the two continuous models starting from a Lagrangian system of interacting rigid elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limit Analysis for No-Tension and Frictional Three-Dimensional Discrete Systems*
Carlo Baggio,Patrizia Trovalusci +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a computer procedure to determine the collapse load for two and three dimensional structures using a non-standard limit analysis approach is implemented, where the mechanisms of hingeing, sliding, and twisting at the block interfaces are accounted for.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collapse behaviour of three-dimensional brick-block systems using non-linear programming
Carlo Baggio,Patrizia Trovalusci +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a two-step procedure for the application of non linear constrained programming to the limit analysis of rigid brick-block systems with no-tension and frictional interface is implemented and applied to various masonry structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cosserat and Cauchy Materials as Continuum Models of Brick Masonry
TL;DR: In this article, the constitutive functions for contact actions in terms of size, shape and arrangement of the block assembly are derived within the framework of the linear elastic Cosserat and Cauchy theories.
