Abstract: Abstract This study presents experimental and numerical research on the in-plane behavior of unreinforced confined masonry walls retrofitted using engineered cementitious composite (ECC) coatings. The experimental results, obtained from cyclic loading tests, demonstrated that this… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The computational prediction of the out-of-plane behaviour of unreinforced masonry walls is a challenge. However, computational numerical models may provide, if properly calibrated, a powerful tool to predict the behaviour of new retrofit techniques.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/buildings10040072
Abstract: The out-of-plane behaviour of the walls as a consequence of an earthquake is the main vulnerability of existing masonry structures. In the case of rigid in compression not tensile resistant material, incremental dynamic analyses may… read more here.
