• In-plane structural performance of dry-joint stone masonry Walls: A spatial and non-spatial stochastic discontinuum analysis 

      Pulatsu, Bora; Gonen, Semih; Erdogmus, Ece; Lourenco, Paulo B.; Lemos, José V.; Prakash, Ravi (Engineering structures;Volume 242, 1 September 2021, 112620, Journal article, 2021-06-09)
      In this study, the in-plane structural behavior, capacity, and performance of dry-joint stone masonry walls (DJ- SMWs) and the effects of the vertical stress level on these factors are investigated via a stochastic ...
    • 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 ...
