Integration of parametric measures and the statics of masonry panels
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider masonry bodies undergoing loads that can be represented by vector valued measures, and prove a result which is an appropriate formulation to this context of the static theorem of the limit analysis. As applications, we study the equilibrium of panels that are subjected both to distributed loads and concentrated forces, and determine equilibrated tensor valued measures. Then, by using an integration procedure for parametric measures, we explicitly calculate equilibrated stress fields that are represented by integrable functions. The obtained solutions are discussed.

Analysis of Masonry Infill Panels Retrofitted with FRP Sheets in R/C Frames
Masonry infill walls are often used as non-structural elements. According to the past structural failure, ignorance of interaction between infill walls and enclosed frame may lead to the different seismic response for non-ductile building frames. The main contribution of this paper is to analytically investigate the behavior of reinforced concrete with masonry infill panels as participating str...
متن کاملMicro-modeling of Masonry Infilled RC Moment Resisting Frames to Investigate Arrangement of Compressive Diagonal Struts
Accurate modeling of masonry has been a major concern of the researchers in the past decades. Besides reinforced and unreinforced masonry structures, masonry can be found in frame structures as infill panels which are used as partitions and/or external walls. These elements role as a part of structure and introduce a large degree of nonlinearity into the system. In this study, a micro-modeling ...
متن کاملExtended Finite Element Method for Statics and Vibration Analyses on Cracked Bars and Beams
In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) is employed to investigate the statics and vibration problems of cracked isotropic bars and beams. Three kinds of elements namely the standard, the blended and the enriched elements are utilized to discretize the structure and model cracks. Two techniques referred as the increase of the number of Gauss integration points and the rectangle...

Masonry infill has been widely used as building material due to its cost effectiveness and availability. The failure of these masonry infill walls during the past earthquakes have underscored the importance of ensuring the safety of the infill walls when it is subjected to lateral loads. In-plane and out of plane failures have been observed in many reinforced concrete framed building with maso...
متن کاملUsing Artificial Intelligence Techniques to Predict the Behaviour of Masonry Panels
Laboratory experimental data is often erroneous. This error is more apparent in data obtained from testing of anisotropic composite materials such as masonry wall panels. In this paper data colleted from the laboratory tests of masonry panels is presented. Methodologies for reducing (correcting) error in laboratory tested data are discussed. The concept of stiffness/strength corrector to model ...
