A mixed elastic-rigid model for masonry structures
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2021-07-16)Masonry is one of the oldest construction materials used by man and still widespread worldwide. Historic buildings with a masonry structure are generally admirable engineering works with paramount socio-economic value and ... -
Continuum and discrete approaches to the statics of masonry vaults
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2019-04-16)This dissertation presents continuum and discrete approaches to the statics of masonry vaults. The thrust surface concept is introduced within Heyman’s safe theorem and extends the funicular curve to the3D case. A variational ... -
Design, mechanical modelling and testing of innovative seismic isolation devices
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2022-07-11)This work takes a pioneering approach to a bio-inspired design of seismic isolation systems. There is a growing demand for tunable seismic isolation devices to be widely used in developing countries at affordable cost. ... -
Innovative GFRP sections shape and proportions in civil engineering structures
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2016-06-22)Although traditional materials (steel, concrete, timber and masonry) still dominate the building industry, new materials are constantly being explored by engineers and scientists. For instance, the use of the so-called ... -
Mechanical behavior of web-flange junctions of thin-walled pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer profiles: an experimental and numerical evaluation
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2018-07-25)Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites represent a class of advanced materials whose use has spread from the aeronautical, mechanical and naval industry to civil infrastructure, which has generated a new set of ... -
Modeling and analysis of functionally graded nanobeams based on local/nonlocal theories of elasticity
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2023-12-12)The aim of this thesis is to introduce the reader to nanotechnologies and functionally graded nanomaterials by providing definitions, classifications and potential applications. In particular, the thesis summarizes the ... -
A numerical and experimental analysis on the mechanical behavior of bolted joints between pultruded profiles and T-Stubs of glass fiber reinforced polymer
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-09-04)In the last decades, FRP composites have been widely used for constructing entire civil structures. One of the challenging issues for building with pultruded FRP composites is understanding the behavior of bolted joints. ... -
Safeability of a beam-to-column adhesive connection for large scale pultruded profiles: experimental investigation and modeling
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2022-05-26)Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials are appealing as alternative to traditional construction materials due to their high tensile strength, excellent resistance to aggressive environments, high strength to weight ratio, ... -
Sulla modellazione meccanica di giunzioni adesive tra elementi tubolari di materiale composito fibrorinforzato
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2018-06-08)Traditional materials (steel, concrete, timber and masonry) still dominate the building industry. However new materials are constantly being explored by engineers and scientists due to their numerous advantages offered. With ... -
Volte e cupole in muratura: un approccio basato sull’equilibrio
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2018-05-29)Masonry curved elements, such as arches, vaults and domes, are among the most widespread, and fascinating, world historical Architecture structural elements. Written historical records about the set of technical rules used ...
