Cosserat model for periodic masonry deduced by nonlinear homogenization
چکیده انگلیسی

The paper deals with the problem of the determination of the in-plane behavior of periodic masonry material. The macromechanical equivalent Cosserat medium, which naturally accounts for the absolute size of the constituents, is derived by a rational homogenization procedure based on the Transformation Field Analysis. The micromechanical analysis is developed considering a Cauchy model for masonry components. In particular, a linear elastic constitutive relationship is considered for the blocks, while a nonlinear constitutive law is adopted for the mortar joints, accounting for the damage and friction phenomena occurring during the loading history. Some numerical applications are performed on a Representative Volume Element characterized by a selected commonly used texture, without performing at this stage structural analyses. A comparison between the results obtained adopting the proposed procedure and a nonlinear micromechanical Finite Element Analysis is presented. Moreover, the substantial differences in the nonlinear behavior of the homogenized Cosserat material model with respect to the classical Cauchy one, are illustrated.
