A new study analyses the medieval leaning tower with a 3D finite element model that accounts for uncertainty in its multi-leaf masonry walls.
Our paper on the Garisenda Tower has been published in Structures:

The study uses a geometrically accurate 3D finite element model to investigate how uncertainty in the properties of the tower’s multi-leaf masonry affects its structural response.
