MASONRY BARREL VAULTS: INFLUENCE OF THE PATTERN

摘要：

Masonry barrel vaults were generally analyzed in the Centuries as sum of single arches without considering longitudinal effects. The finite element method (FEM) allows to assess curved structures in linear and nonlinear field. Nevertheless, particular attention must be addressed to the geometry and the material model. The aim of this paper is the assessment of the role of the pattern in the structural behaviour of masonry barrel vaults. For this scope, advanced numerical approaches (i.e. macro and micro models) were adopted. Linear and nonlinear analyses were performed with reference to some case studies characterized by different unit arrangements.
