Discrete-continuum approach to assess 3D failure modes of masonry arch bridges

There are two main objectives of this research. First, a full masonry arch bridge with all structural components are considered. The failure mechanism of spandrel wall and backfill-masonry interaction are successfully simulated using a 3D discrete-continuum model as validated by previously published...
