Macro and Micro Modeling of the Unreinforced Masonry Shear Walls

Year 2019, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 116 - 123, 10.10.2019

Abstract

Masonry
structures are constructed by joining masonry units (brick, stone, marble etc.)
with mortar.  Various methods are used
for modeling of masonry walls of the structures. Micro modeling and Macro modeling
are two diverse modeling techniques. In this study, these two modeling
strategies are analyzed on a solid unreinforced masonry shear wall numerically.
The models are implemented in ANSYS software to simulate the structural
behavior of a tested wall in literature. The homogenization technique is
applied to obtain the material parameters used in the macro model. Brick and
mortar are modelled separately in the micro model. Stresses occurring in the
walls under the effect of in-plane loads are investigated. The propagations of
the cracks on the walls are analyzed numerically. The results obtained in the
micro modeling and macro modeling are in consistent with the experimental study
in the literature. However, macro modeling and micro modeling represent
strictly disparate behavior in the material identification, and crack
propagations.
