Numerical modelling of the structural behaviour of Buti's bell tower
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the numerical techniques implemented in the finite-element code NOSA for structural analysis of masonry constructions and apply them to the analysis of Buti's bell tower, a medieval structure located on the Pisa mountains, under two different conditions: first, with the structure subjected to its own weight alone, and then while subjected to both their own weight and a horizontal load, which models an earthquake.

A complementary energy formulation of no tension masonry-like solids
Massimo Cuomo,Giulio Ventura +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a complementary energy formulation for the solution of the static equilibrium problem of no-tension solids is presented, where the main feature is systematic use of the augmented Lagrangian approach for the regularisation of the nonsmooth and nondifferentiable anelastic deformation potential.

Finite element analysis of no---tension structures as a topology optimization problem
TL;DR: An alternative numerical approach is presented for the analysis of no–tension masonry–like solids that efficiently solves the effect of compatible loads through a one–shot energy–based optimization.

On the numerical and experimental strengthening assessment of tufa masonry with frp
TL;DR: In this article, a constitutive relation of bounded tensile strength function of the strain state of the material is proposed for tufa masonry structures with and without fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement.

The stone skeleton
TL;DR: In this article, the mode of action of masonry construction is investigated using the principles of plastic design developed originally for steel frames, applied to the analysis of the structural system of the Gothic cathedral; the flying buttress and the nave vault are treated in some detail.

A numerical method for solving equilibrium problems of masonry-like solids
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical method for the solution of equilibrium problems of solids which do not support tension is proposed, where boundary value problems are solved numerically and the solution obtained is compared to the exact one.

An Approach to the Problem of Closure in Non-Linear Stochastic Mechanics'
Nguyen Dong Anh,Werner Schiehlen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach combining the method of moment equations and the statistical linearization technique is proposed for analysis of the response of non-linear mechanical systems to random excitation, which yields good accurate results for both weak and strong nonlinear stochastic systems.

Constitutive Equations for Masonry-Like Materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method for calculating the solution for transversely isotropic materials, which can be used in the case of plane strain state, in which the material's elastic constants and the deformation tensor vary.
