摘要：
In the current study, the dynamic mechanical behaviour of a masonry cupola composed of non-convex discrete elements is investigated. This cupola is designed in innovative and modern ways and was recently constructed with stone blocks in the south of France. The necessity of applying an accurate numerical modelling method being able to take into account the real geometry of each non-convex block is also presented and discussed. The stability state of this masonry structure, by considering the different levels of seismic loads is studied. In addition, the effects of changes in the contact condition between blocks, or the blocks and the structure foundation, are comprehensively investigated.
