Analysis and prediction of masonry wallette strength under combined compression-bending via stochastic computational modeling
Gonen, Semih; Pulatsu, Bora; Lourenço, Paulo B.; Lemos, José V.; Tuncay, Kagan; Erduran, Emrah (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The out-of-plane flexural bending capacity of masonry is a fundamental property for understanding the behavior of masonry structures. This study investigates the behavior of unreinforced masonry wallettes subjected to ... -
Damping in masonry arch railway bridges under service loads: An experimental and numerical investigation
Erduran, Emrah; Gonen, Semih; Pulatsu, Bora; Soyoz, Serdar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This article investigates the damping behavior of masonry arch bridges under service loads extracted from experimental data and provides guidelines on how to emulate this behavior in numerical analysis, particularly in ... -
Effect of Precompression and Material Uncertainty on the In-Plane Behavior of URM Pier–Spandrel Systems
Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Parisi, Fulvio (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Theoretical and experimental studies on loadbearing masonry walls have shown the significant influence of the axial load level (i.e., precompression) and wall aspect ratio on in-plane lateral resistance. Nonetheless, the ... -
Effects of spatial variability and correlation in stochastic discontinuum analysis of unreinforced masonry walls
Gonen, Semih; Pulatsu, Bora; Erdogmus, Ece; Lourenco, Paulo B.; Soyoz, Serdar (Construction and Building Materials;Volume 337, 27 June 2022, 127511, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04-27)This study investigates the influence of the uncertainty in material properties on the in-plane lateral behavior and capacity of stone masonry walls via a stochastic discontinuum analysis framework. The framework is ... -
In-plane structural performance of dry-joint stone masonry Walls: A spatial and non-spatial stochastic discontinuum analysis

Probabilistic approach to assess URM walls with openings using discrete rigid block analysis (D-RBA)
Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Parisi, Fulvio; Erdogmus, Ece; Tuncay, Kagan; Funari, Marco Francesco; Lourenço, Paulo B. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This study aims to improve our current understanding of the seismic assessment of load-bearing unreinforced masonry (URM) systems by proposing a probabilistic computational modeling framework using the discrete element ... -
Static and impact response of a single-span stone masonry arch
Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Lourenço, Paulo B. (Infrastructures;Volume 6, Issue 12, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-12-16)Unreinforced masonry structures are susceptible to man-made hazards such as impact and blast loading. However, the literature on this subject mainly focuses on masonry wall behavior, and there is a knowledge gap about the ...
