Experimental investigation on cyclic behavior of perforated steel plate shear walls

Linked mathematical–informational modeling of perforated steel plate shear walls

“…It is supposed that in the post-buckling step, the diagonal tension field will develop with an angle θ from the horizon throughout the whole web plate. By obtaining the total stress of the plate at the time of yielding according to the Von Mises yield criterion for thin plates, the shear strength of the web plate, F u , can be evaluated as follows [16]:…”

Structural performance assessment of trapezoidally-corrugated and centrally-perforated steel plate shear walls

“…This study showed that although the perforations reduce the shear capacity of the infill plate considerably, they may not reduce the force demands on the columns. Valizadeh et al [18], also, conducted an experimental investigation on cyclic behavior of steel shear walls with centrally-placed circular opening. The effects of existence of the central perforation and the opening size on some structural parameters, i.e.…”

Introduction of stiffened large rectangular openings in steel plate shear walls

“…The ultimate strength of perforated steel plates under shear loading was studied by Paik [22], and the linear and nonlinear behavior of steel shear panels with circular and rectangular holes by Pellegrino et al [23]. Valizadeh et al [24] experimentally investigated cyclic behavior of perforated steel plate shear walls with a circular opening at the center of the panel. The obtained results showed that the creation of openings reduced the initial stiffness and strength and noticeably decreased the energy absorption of the system.…”
