NSCD discrete element method for modelling masonry structures

Chetouane, Brahim / Dubois, F. / Vinches, M. / Bohatier, C.

The aim of this paper is to present a discrete element approach for the study of stonework. In the present work, a masonry structure is considered as a collection of rigid or deformable blocks, interacting together by contact laws. In this paper, the authors use the non-smooth contact dynamics (NSCD) resolution method mainly used for the modelling of granular media. In the considered masonry structures the authors define, on an elementary cell, average local strain and stress tensors. These definitions are valid under dynamical loading of the structure, taking into account rotations. The authors present their use on academic and on real masonry structures.
