Seismic Calculation for a Dry-stacked Tower in the Italian Province of Rovigo : Master's Thesis

Abstract

U ovom radu prikazana je primjena razvijenog numeričkog modela s ciljem analize ponašanja građevinske konstrukcije pod djelovanjem potresa. Za potrebe istraživanja uzet je u obzir značajan potresni događaj koji se desio 1979. godine u mjestu Petrovac, smještenom u Crnoj Gori. Istraživanje je usmjereno na temeljitu analizu suhozidane konstrukcije. Analitički proračuni temelje se na primjeni kombinirane metode konačno-diskretnih elemenata. Kroz provedeno istraživanje dobiveni su rezultati koji prikazuju krajnja stanja konstrukcije, uključujući fazu potpunog kolapsa.This study presents the application of a developed numerical model aimed at analyzing the behavior of a building structure under the influence of an earthquake. For the purpose of this research, a significant seismic event that occurred in 1979 in Petrovac, located in Montenegro, has been taken into consideration. The research is focused on an in-depth analysis of dry-stone masonry construction. Analytical calculations are based on the application of a combined finite-discrete element method. Through the conducted research, results have been obtained that depict the ultimate states of the construction, including the phase of complete collapse
