Abstract

This paper investigates the mechanical behaviour of heritage structures subjected to seasonal temperature variations. To this end, the constitutive equation of masonry-like materials, which has been embedded in the finite element code NOSA-ITACA (www.nosaitaca.it), is used to model the static and dynamic behaviour of simple arched masonry structures subjected to thermal loads
