Abstract

Numerical simulations of several planar failure modes of masonry structuresare presented, based on the model and solving code from a recent hemivariationalblock-based model inspired from granular micromechanics (Tran et al. [33]). Thenumerical tests include a comparison with literature results for a constant shearingload, a parametric study of the influence of mortar thickness, and the simulation ofcommon failures such as bending, shear sliding, and rocking. The results show thatthe studied model is able to capture common failure modes. Conclusions and insightstowards the extension of the studied model are then given.
