This idea can be viewed from another perspective: The incremental methods[4, 5] are actually the case in which all springs are rigid (with infinite strength), so that all locally resolved configurations are kept unchangeable.

The kinematic approach has been applied for arches analysis, in the undeformed configuration, according to the hypotheses of no-tension masonry material characterized by infinite strength in compression (Heyman 1966 , 1995 Como 2013).

The effectiveness of the method for both fixed and moving grids is demonstrated via several 1D test problems including a standard shock tube problem and an infinite strength reflected shock problem.

We show numerical results in two dimensions for Noh's infinite strength shock problem and the Sedov blast wave problem, and for several one-dimensional problems including a Riemann problem with a contact discontinuity.

Furthermore, due to the hypotheses of negligible elastic deformation and no-penetration of the material (infinite strength in compression), the only admissible state of deformation of the element is the rotation around one of its edge (upper or lower) or the detachment (Fig. 1b).

The masonry is modeled as a no-tension material with infinite compression strength and sufficient friction to prevent the sliding, as introduced by Heyman (1966 , 1995.

Furthermore, the elastic strains are supposed to be negligible, and infinite shear strength is assumed, in order to avoid sliding failures.

The numerical model is a two-dimensional assemblage of rigid blocks interacting at no-tension, frictional contact interfaces with infinite compressive strength.

When the member size becomes infinite, the strength decreases in proportion to the square root of the size based on linear fracture mechanics as defined in Eq. (5a), and in case of dissimilar cracking, the size effect converges toward a certain value as shown in Eq. (5b).
