Description

A nonlinear constitutive model combined with an ad-hoc developed numerical strategy is here proposed to study the nonlinear dynamics of masonry buildings approached through single degree-of-freedoms (1-dof).
Such a proposal is explicitly targeted to provide enhancements in developing tools for seismic structural health monitoring in large-scale urban contexts.

The model accounts for plasticity and damage induced by friction and wear, and it is able to capture the nonlinear response of structures subject to general external time-dependent loads.
 
A numerical algorithm to solve the ensuing piece-wise nonlinear equations is formulated and explicitly developed in a low-level language, so as to result optmized for specific hardware systems for structural health monitoring.
