Discrete Element Modelling of Masonry Arch Bridges, Arches and Vaults
Discrete element models provide a numerical representation of masonry structures as an assembly of discrete units interacting along joints. The essential concepts of this numerical method are presented herein, namely the choice of rigid or deformable blocks for the units, the assumptions governing contact mechanics, and the solution algorithms. The application of discrete element to masonry arches and vaults is discussed and illustrated with various examples. Practical application issues are examined by means of simple arch models, considering static and dynamic loads.
