This paper describes a new technique for the limit state analysis of arcuate masonry vaults. The technique involves modelling the principal stresses in a masonry vault as a discrete network of forces. This network of forces is constrained to lie within the masonry vault and be in equilibrium with th

## Abstract A growing interest in the preservation of historic structures has created a need for methods for the analysis of load‐bearing unreinforced masonry structures, such as arches, vaults, and buttresses. Although the plasticity methods, first applied to medieval structures in detail by Heyma
Vaults, at 13 MDa, are the largest ribonucleoprotein particles known. In vitro, expression of the major vault protein (MVP) alone in Sf9 insect cells results in the production of recombinant particles with characteristic vault structure. With the ultimate goal of using recombinant vaults as nanocaps
## Abstract As a result of experimental and analytical research in seismic behaviour of masonry structures in the last few decades, new methods for seismic resistance analysis and design, as well as new, seismic resistant technologies and construction systems have been developed. After many centuri
