| description abstract | A finite element procedure developed for the study of fracture in concrete is extended for the simulation of tensile and/or shear fracture in masonry. Triangular units are grouped into rectangular zones mimicking brick units with surrounding mortar joints. Fracture is captured through a constitutive softening-fracture law at the boundary interface nodes. The mortar joint, which is a plane of weakness, can be modeled as an interface of zero thickness or of a given thickness. At each nodal location, there exist essentially | |
