Using the Applied Element Method to simulate the dynamic response of full-scale URM houses tested to collapse or near-collapse conditions

by Applied Element Method | Jun 15, 2018 | Conferences

In this work, the Applied Element Method (AEM) is employed to reproduce the dynamic response of three full-scale unreinforced masonry (URM) house specimens tested on a shake-table. Two of the test specimens correspond to a calcium-silicate terraced house typology...

Applied Element Method Analysis of Porous GFRP Barrier Subjected to Blast

by Applied Element Method | Feb 16, 2010 | Journals

Numerical analysis of highly dynamic phenomena represents a critical field of study and application for structural engineering as it addresses extreme loading conditions on buildings and the civil infrastructure. In fact, large deformations and material...

Building Demolition: Positive Aspect of Progressive Collapse

by Applied Element Method | Dec 30, 2009 | Other Publications, Thesis

Progressive collapse is a failure mode of great concern for tall buildings, and it is also typical for building demolition. Engineers are nowadays more and more interested in estimating structures integrity and finding adequate collapse theories, in order to develop...

Analysis of FRP-to-Concrete Joint Assemblies with FRP Spike Anchors using the Applied Element Method

by Applied Element Method | Dec 30, 2009 | Conferences

Experiments have shown fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) spike anchors to increase the bond strength of FRP-to concrete joint assemblies. However, the debonding mechanism is not yet fully explained and a holistic bond-slip model is not available in the open literature....

Simulation of Brick Masonry Wall Behavior Under Cyclic Loading Using Applied Element Method

by Applied Element Method | Mar 30, 2007 | Bulletins

Understanding masonry wall behavior under lateral cyclic loads is important as it helps both evaluating the seismic vulnerability of existing buildings and developing proper retrofitting measures.  In this study, the simulation of brick masonry wall behavior was...
