What is Finite-Discrete Model for Masonry Analysis about?

This document presents a new numerical model called the combined finite-discrete element method (FEM/DEM) for analyzing the behavior of masonry structures. The model represents masonry as discrete blocks connected by interface elements that simulate the behavior of mortar joints. It can predict failure mechanisms from initial continuum behavior to final discontinuity. The model was compared to other numerical and experimental results and showed high accuracy in predicting the load-displacement response and
