Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Unreinforced Masonry Walls
Most of the monumental structures worldwide and residential structures in developing countries are built in masonry. The studies performed by various researchers prove the vulnerability of masonry structures under various circumstances, especially under earthquakes, so as to necessitate detailed contemplation. In this paper, a numerical model for nonlinear static analysis of unreinforced masonry walls is developed based on a macro-modelling approach. A detailed parametric study is also performed to analyse the effect of wall thickness as well as length on the behaviour of the masonry wall. The present numerical model can be utilized for risk assessment and seismic retrofitting of historical masonry structures.
