Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAn Adaptive Procedure for the Limit Analysis of FRP Reinforced Masonry Vaults and ApplicationsAndrea Chiozzi, Gabriele Milani, Nicola Grillanda, Antonio TralliThe present paper discusses an adaptive procedure for the kinematic limit analysis of FRP reinforced masonry vaults through applications. The approach relies on a new Genetic Algorithm NURBS-based general framework, which has been recently presented by the authors. The basic idea consists into exploiting the NURBS structure of a CAD geometric 3D model of the selected reinforced masonry vault, in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2016 · 8,522 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfrared Thermography for the Characterization of Painted Vaults of Historic Masonry BuildingsClaudia Casapulla, Alessandra Maione, Luca Umberto ArgientoThe infrared thermography is a type of non-destructive investigation which can find interesting application in acquiring information about the structural features of ancient masonry buildings. In this case, in fact, the needs of preservation of the historical values have to be compound with the needs of achieving a proper level of knowledge of the parameters influencing the structural behaviour in … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2018 · 7,867 accessesView PDF Cite
