dc.description.abstractIn literature, there are many methods proposed for structural analysis based on discrete element formulations, mainly for nonlinear problems. One of these new methods is the Fibre Contact Element Method (FCEM). Many of these methods have been used for structural dynamic analysis problems. However, there are some questions about their precision in capturing the dynamic elastic response of structures when comparing to methods based on continuous models, like the well known Finite Element Method (FEM). For this reason, the results obtained with FCEM were extensively compared with FEM results and with laboratorial tests, to better understand the performance of this new method in capturing the elastic dynamic response of structures. Results indicate that this kind of discrete methods are able to determine the vibration modes of a structure with equal or better precision level than the obtained with FEM. FCEM was also used to capture the dynamic response of a reinforced concrete frame with infill walls, as a way to show the method capabilities in reproducing the dynamic behaviour of structures that have an almost continuous mass distribution.pt_PT
