A New Macro-Element for Predicting the Behavior of Masonry Structures under In-Plane Cyclic Loading

Résumé

A new macro model for the finite element modeling of unreinforced masonry (URM) exhibiting in-plane nonlinear cyclic behavior is proposed. The ultimate objective is to predict the seismic response of multi-story URM buildings. The macro model enables the modeling of URM shear walls with a limited number of degrees of freedom (DOF) at low computation times. The macro model consists of a deformable elastic frame supported by diagonal struts with nonlinear behavior aiming to capture all dissipative phenomena occurring during seismic events. The nonlinear constitutive behavior of diagonal struts is inspired by models documented in the literature, ensuring a robust foundation for the proposed approach. This paper first provides a comprehensive review of the principal models currently available for URM analysis. It then articulates the rationale behind the development of this new numerical model, aiming to address the limitations encountered in existing methodologies and to offer a simple and fast tool for predicting the seismic behavior of URM buildings. Afterward, the new model is presented and tested with the simulations of two experimental campaigns performed on different URM walls. The comparison between experimental and numerical results shows that with a limited number of DOF and parameters, it is possible to obtain a prediction of the experimental results with satisfying accuracy
