Abstract

A numerical model is presented to enable performing non-linear dynamic analysis of slender masonry structures and elements, such as towers and columns or masonry walls in out-of-plane flexure. Such structures are represented via a continuous onedimensional model. The main mechanical characteristics of the material in all sections along the height of such structures are taken into account by means of a non-linear elastic constitutive law formulated in terms of generalized stress and strain, under the assumption that the material has no resistance to tension and limited compressive strength. The relations defined herein for the general case of hollow rectangular cross-sections are also aimed at enabling study of towers, bell-towers and similar slender structures.
