## Abstract We model masonry structures as elastodynamic systems assembled from a large number of elastic bodies (bricks or stone‐blocks) in unilateral, frictional contact. The problem is formulated as a quasi‐variational inequality and discretised using piecewise polynomial finite elements in conj

The present paper is devoted to the theoretical formulation and numerical implementation of an interface model suitable to simulate the behavior of mortar joints in masonry structures. The interface laws are formulated in the framework of elasto-plasticity for nonstandard materials in order to simul
