dc.description.abstract | The Leaning Tower of Pisa has aroused admiration and curiosity throughout the world for its beauty and unusual lean. This study investigates the effects of increasing lean on the structural integrity of the tower. Employing a three dimensional finite element model, two failure modes are investigated and discussed. | en_US |
