Detailed micro-modelling of unreinforced masonry walls: a parametric in-plane cyclic study
Unreinforced masonry walls (UMWs) exhibit insufficient seismic capacity owing to their low tensile strength, rapid stiffness degradation, and brittle failure under cyclic in-plane loading. This study proposed a detailed micro-modelling approach to simulate the in-plane behaviour of UMWs. The finite element model was in...
