Beschreibungen

The book aims to provide an overview of the state of the art on the mechanics of arches and masonry structures. It is addressed to an international audience, arising from the international context in which the Associazione Edoardo Benvenuto has carried out its activities in recent years, under the honorary presidency of Jacques Heyman. The book belongs to the collection Between Mechanics and Architecture, born in 1995 from the collaboration of several renowned scholars, including Edoardo Benvenuto (P. Radelet-de Grave, E. Benvenuto (eds.), Entre Mécanique et Architecture / Between Mechanics and Architecture, Birkhäuser, Basel 1995).

<p>This book provides an overview of state of the art research in the mechanics of masonry structures. It continues the series <i>Between Mechanics and Architecture</i>, initially launched in 1995 from the collaboration of several renowned scholars, including Edoardo Benvenuto and Patricia Radelet-de Grave.</p><p> </p><p>The contributions in this volume represent the main approaches to the complex topic of masonry structures. In addition to historical studies, the mechanical behavior of masonry arches and structures is studied using different approaches (structural analysis, limit analysis, elastic analysis, plasticity, mathematical approaches, etc.), at times difficult to reconcile, at others intertwined and complementary.</p><p> </p><p>Readers will have the opportunity to compare different theoretical lines of inquiry and thus explore new horizons of research.</p><p> </p><p>Contributions by:</p><p>Danila Aita</p><p>Andrea Bacigalupo</p><p>Riccardo Barsotti</p><p>Stefano Bennati</p><p>Antonio Brencich</p><p>Mario Como</p><p>Salvatore D’Agostino</p><p>Luigi Gambarotta</p><p>Jacques Heyman</p><p>Santiago</p> Huerta<p></p><p>Massimiliano Lucchesi</p><p>Patricia Radelet-de Grave</p><p>Elio Sacco</p><p>Miroslav Šilhavý</p><p>Anna Sinopoli</p><p>Piero Villaggio</p><p>Nicola Zani</p>
<p>Contributions by scholars of international prestige, among which Mario Como, Jacques Heyman, Patricia Radelet-de Grave, Anna Sinopoli, Piero Villaggio</p><p>Compares different approaches to the study of masonry structures</p><p>Includes one of the last works written by Piero Villaggio</p>
