Two unilateral models, the first with contact interfaces and the second with continuous damage material (Fremond’s model), are applied on the nonlinear analysis and collapse of masonry arches. The results are compared with the predictions of the classical Heyman theory.

Key words: Unilateral analysis, Fremond damage model, masonry arches, limit analysis, collapse analysis, Heyman theory.
