NON-LINEAR DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF MASONRY TOWERS UNDER NATURAL ACCELEROGRAMS ACCOUNTING FOR SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION (2013)

The object of the paper is the influence of the soil-structure interaction on the dynamic response of masonry towers, for which a high level of stress is involved already in the static field. The relevant deformations and displacements at the base of the tower suggest that a significant volume of ground is engaged into the overall dynamic response, both as a participating mass and as a potential carrier of energy dissipation.
