Abstract
Ancient monuments, such as classical columns in high seismicity areas of the
Eastern Mediterranean, exhibit complex seismic behaviours, including rocking and sliding,
which can provide insights into past earthquakes. Using the Discrete Element Method (DEM),
the researchers have found that multi-drum columns can reveal information about the peak
ground acceleration (PGA) of past earthquakes, particularly when the dominant frequency is
low and the failure mode mainly involves rocking motion
