Advanced nonlinear analysis of masonry arch bridges

This research investigates the nonlinear response up to collapse of masonry arches and arch bridges using advanced numerical descriptions. Past research has shown that the mesoscale modelling approach for brick-masonry, where bricks and mortar joints are modelled separately, may offer a realistic re...
