A discontinuous sub-block model(II):Case analysis

Based on the discontinuous sub-block model brought forward in the first part of this paper,the object-oriented numerical simulation program is developed with the Visual C++ program language.The feasibility,validity and precision of the numerical simulation program are proved through some classical validation examples.At last,the numerical simulation program is applied to the failure simulation of a masonry arch bridge.The advantages of discontinuous sub-block model to deal with the failure of material are proved by comparing with the simulation results from other methods and discussion.
