Steel plate shear wall connected to beams only under cyclic loading Abaqus

In this example we intend to simulate Steel plate shear wall connected to beams only under cyclic loading in the Abaqus software

As you observe in the picture, this Model is composed of plate, beam, column and stiffening box

As you observe in this picture , there is no connection between the plate and the columns and the plate has only been connected to beam

In this question the beams and columns have been connected together using hinges and the places of hinges have been marked out with circle

In this question, a cyclic loading is applied to the top of the model and following that it’s hysteresis diagram will be drawn

This problem consists of two parts: 1- buckling analysis 2- hysteresis analysis

First, buckling analysis is performed and buckling modes are extracted. Then, the initial imperfection is defined using buckling modes

In these pictures, deformation of the steel plate shear wall undergoing the cyclic loading can be observed

This project has been validated, which means that the results obtained from Abaqus software are similar to the results of the article. In other words, this project is based on the article
