Rigid element model for in-plane dynamics of masonry walls considering hysteretic behaviour and damage.

A specific rigid element approach is proposed for the in-plane dynamical analysis of masonry walls, whose seismic performance is strongly related to mechanical deterioration and hysteretic energy dissipation. Since the execution of effective time-history analysis necessitates the use of discrete mod...
