Analytical and numerical analysis on the collapse modes of least-thickness circular masonry arches at decreasing friction

Departing from pioneering Heyman modern rational investigations on the purely-rotational collapse mode of least-thickness circular masonry arches, the hypothesis that joint friction shall be high enough to prevent inter-block sliding is released. The influence of a reducing Coulomb friction coeffici...
