Numerical Analysis of Historical Masonry Minaret Subjected to Wind Load
The present paper describes the behavior and response of an unreinforced masonry historical minaret when subjected to wind pressure as a main external loading. Three-dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis was performed to obtain lateral displacements of the minaret shaft and stresses in its components. Abaqus software with implicit solver was utilized for finite element modeling and nonlinear analysis of a historical masonry minaret subjected to wind load. Clay brick masonry units, mortar, and unit-mortar interfaces were modeled individually to permit the studying of each component separately. The shaft of the minaret was divided into brick courses (Bayors) separated by horizontal mortar joints. Two analyses were conducted on the minaret model, considering first its weight alone and in addition to wind loading second. The results showed that the unreinforced masonry minaret could resist the compressive stresses induced by the self-weight of its components. Also, lateral displacements and compressive and tensile stresses results due to the effect of wind pressure and minaret's weight simultaneously were obtained, which showed that the minaret exhibited an adequate resistance to the wind with a speed of 120 km/h.
