An Approach to Masonry Structural Analysis by the No-Tension Assumption—Part I: Material Modeling, Theoretical Setup, and Closed Form Solutions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The prevalent feature that characterizes masonry structures and makes them dissimilar from modern reinforced concrete and steel structures is quite definitely their inability to resist tensile ...
An Approach to Masonry Structural Analysis by the No-Tension Assumption—Part II: Load Singularities, Numerical Implementation and Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present note follows the previous one, part I, where theoretical tools for analyzing structures made by no-tension (NT) material are presented in extensive form. Some significant results are ...
