Elastic, plastic, fracture analysis of masonry arches: A multi-span bridge case study

Giuseppe LacidognaFederico Accornero — 2018

Curved and Layered Structures

In this work a comparison is presented between elastic, plastic, and fracture analysis of the monumental arch bridge of Porta Napoli, Taranto (Italy). By means of a FEM model and applying the Mery’s Method, the behavior of the curved structure under service loads is verified, while considering the Safe Theorem approach byHeyman, the ultimate carrying capacity of the structure is investigated. Moreover, by using Fracture Mechanics concepts, the damage process which takes place when the conditions...

Open and closed shear-walls in high-rise structural systems: Static and dynamic analysis

Alberto CarpinteriGiuseppe LacidognaGiuseppe Nitti — 2016

Curved and Layered Structures

In the present paper, a General Algorithm is applied to the analysis of high-rise structures. This algorithm is to be used as a calculation tool in preliminary design; it allows to define the interaction between closed and open, straight or curved shear-walls, and the forces exchanged in structures subject to mainly horizontal loads. The analysis can be performed in both static and dynamic regimes, the mode shapes and the natural frequencies being assessed. This general formulation allows analyses...
