Masonry is among the most widely used construction materials around the world.
Contemporary masonry buildings are primarily designed to comply with prescriptive building …

Masonry structures are one of the most traditional and economical structural forms that are
extensively used worldwide. However, severe damage to the masonry structures during past …

In this paper, we propose a simple approach to derive a single-surface multi-failure strength
domain for the in-plane behaviour of masonry. The approach, that lays the basis for …

In this paper, a multi-failure continuum model for in-plane analysis of masonry structures is
introduced. The model is based on a recently-proposed single-surface multi-failure strength …

Ice, as a novel green and sustainable building material, has attracted more and more
attention in building engineering. Appropriate ice material models are crucial for the …

Single-bay masonry building is the main structure form of rural houses in Southwest China.
In the investigation of earthquake damage in Lushan earthquake, it is found that this type of …

Masonry structures often exhibit poor seismic performance during earthquakes owing to
their low material strength, structural integrity, and ductility. To address the mechanism of in …

Masonry structures built in different years according to different Chinese seismic design
codes are still widely distributed in China. In order to study the differences in seismic …

In past seismic events, earthquakes have often caused significant damage to buildings. It is
noteworthy that most of the existing buildings are reinforced concrete structures. Therefore …
