Seismic performance of masonry cross vaults: learning from historical developments and experimental testing... Groin vaults are resulting from the intersection at a right angle of two semi-cylindrical shells on a square bay, and can be addressed as the simplest form of cross vaults, defined as a combination (compound) of curved shells whose thrust converges along the diagonals to isolated abutments....
A simple meso-macro model based on sqp for the non-linear analysis of masonry double curvature structures ...properties.Several numerical examples are analyzed, consisting of two different typologies of masonry arches (a parabolic vault and an arch in a so-called “skew” disposition), a ribbed cross vault, a hemispherical dome and a cloister vault....
Simple homogenized model for the non-linear analysis of frp strengthened masonry structures. part ii : structural applications... Additionally, single and double curvature masonry structures strengthened in various ways, namely a circular arch with buttresses and a ribbed cross vault, are considered....
Experimental and numerical analysis of seismic response of unreinforced masonry cross vaultsThe present paper shows an experimental and numerical analysis to understand the seismic behaviour of unreinforced masonry cross vault....
