Nandadeep have developed the completely new analysis approach for studying the stability of masonry AVD structures. This analysis method is called as Finite Element Thrust Line Analysis (FETLA) which successfully combine the simplicity of thrust line analysis and versatility of finite element analysis. For obtaining the software, one may contact Dr. Mahesh Varma. The publication in international journal and international conferences on FETLA attached below:
