Numerical Modelling of Historical Masonry Structures

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper discusses selected aspects on numerical modelling of historical masonry structures. Linear elastic material models are mentioned first, and then non-linear models are discussed. The paper includes several examples of solutions which have been done with use of these models. There is also an example of results which can be obtained from anon-linear analysis of masonry structures. The finite element method is used for computations.
