What is DEM Analysis of Masonry Structures about?

This document discusses the use of discrete element modeling (DEM) to simulate the failure of masonry structures under lateral loads. DEM allows modeling masonry as discrete blocks and joints, fitting its composite nature. The study examines the influence of material properties and cross-section morphologies on the out-of-plane strength of stacked, rubble, and irregular masonry walls. It also models portal frames, masonry piers and arches, and a real minaret structure. The results show DEM can accurately ca
