Seismic performance and strain localization in a historic masonry minaret: A comparative evaluation of internal steel strengthening strategies
In this study, the seismic performance of a historic masonry minaret was investigated through nonlinear time-history analyses, and the relationship between global stiffness enhancement and local strain localization was evaluated. Four different internal steel strengthening scenarios, developed within a finite element m...
