Cyclic behavior of Low-yield-point (LYP) steel plate shear wall with stiffener Abaqus

Cyclic behavior of Low-yield-point (LYP) steel plate shear wall with stiffener Abaqus

In this illustration, we intend to simulate Low Yield Point Steel Plate Shear Wall with Stiffener under the cyclic loading in the Abaqus software

As you observe in the picture, the Model is composed of Shear Web Plate, Horizontal Stiffener, Vertical Stiffener, Flange Plate and Connection Plate

In this picture, you can observe the laboratory Model that will become simulated in the Abaqus software

In this problem, first we will do the Buckling Analysis of the Steel Shear Wall and then the hysteresis analysis of the steel shear wall will be performed.

In these pictures, the areas where the buckling has occurred can be clearly observed. Actually, the buckling has occurred in the four corners of the steel shear wall. As you observe, the results obtained from the Abaqus software are similar to results explained in the article

In this picture, the hysteresis diagram gained from the Abacus software has been compared with those results mentioned in the article

In this picture, the deformation of the shear wall under 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
