Computer modelling of the Basilica of Pilar in Zaragoza Spain

摘要

The Basilica of Pilar located in the city of Zaragoza is one of the most well known Spanish cathedral. Several domes of this church contain frescoes authored by Francisco de Goya. Some of the painting have suffered in the past decades due to structural pathologies and a computer modelling was carried out aimed to find the links between the structural behaviour of the construction and the existing painting problems. The computational study is not finished yet and more information will be provided in the future.
