Estimation of tensile mechanical parameters of existing masonry through the analysis of the collapse of Volterra�s urban walls

In this work, numerical analyses on the Volterra�s ancient walls are performed to understand the causes of a collapse occurred after an extreme rainfall (2014) and to identify the mechanical parameters that most influenced it. The stretch of collapsed wall is modelled with finite elements by disting...
