Summary
This paper evaluates the dissipation and deformation capacities of frame-masonry
shear-wall systems. A simple planar model, consisting of a rectangular cracked masonry
shear-wall containing a rectangular centered window, confined on three sides
by a concrete portal, is considered. Sliding shear and diagonal shear modes are taken
into account when a horizontal (monotonic or cyclic) load is applied to the top of the
portal. The adopted strategy is based on: an appropriate definition of the kinematics
of the cracked wall; an extended Galerkin-based variational formulation for the
derivation of the equations of motion; an interface modeling of the sliding interactions
along of the cracks; an ad-hoc implementation of the resolution algorithm, based on a
predictor-corrector scheme. As a final result, a damped one-DOF freedom oscillator
is defined by using an energy-based equivalence criterion.
