Behaviour of Masonry Arches Under Foundation Movement (2024)
Thesis

A significant number of UK bridges are masonry arches, with over 60% being more than a
century old and bearing loads beyond their initial design intent. This poses a challenge for longterm assessment. Current assessment tools range from simplistic t... Read More about Behaviour of Masonry Arches Under Foundation Movement.

Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The continued use of many UK highway and railway masonry arch bridges is dependent upon maintaining robustness as the materials deteriorate over time. A common failure in multi-ring brickwork arches subject to fatigue, is ring separation.

Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper investigates the effect of foundation settling on masonry arch bridge structural behaviour using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Masonry arch bridges form a
large proportion of existing European infrastructure such as rail and road bridges... Read More about Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement.
