Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Haynes, J., Naggasa, A., Augusthus-Nelson, L., El-basir, F., & Alsaleh, A. (2019, October). Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets. Presented at 9th International Conference on Arch Bridges, Porto, Portugal

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. This pape... Read More about Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets.

Investigation of assessment methods for railway masonry arch bridges (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Wang, J., Haynes, B., & Melbourne, C. (2018, October). Investigation of assessment methods for railway masonry arch bridges. Presented at 8th International Conference on Arch Bridges, Wroclaw, Poland

Although masonry arch bridge research over the last few decades has spawned several advanced capacity assessment tools, the maintenance and assessment of these bridges is still a constant concern for the bridge owners. There have been many appeals fo... Read More about Investigation of assessment methods for railway masonry arch bridges.

Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Naggasa, A., Augusthus Nelson, L., & Haynes, B. (2018, July). Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement. Presented at 10th International Masonry Conference, Milan, Italy

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...
