Nonlinear Analysis of R/C Shear Walls Subjected to Inelastic Cyclic Loads by finite Element Mettled

비탄성 반복하중을 받는 철근콘크리트 전단벽의 비선형 유한요소 해석

The objective of this study is to predict the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete shear walls, with the reinforcement uniformly distributed, under reversed cyclic loads. This study introduces joint Element Model which formulates the pulling out of rebars, slipping and intrusion of junction planes. The applicability of this study was experimental verfied by specimens SW1, SW2 and SW3 tested by authors, Wall1 by Paulay, SW16 and SW19 by Sheu. In almost specimen, the ratio of analytical to experimental maximum shear stress is within approximately 5%. In case of energy dissipation and maximum drift, the analytical results fully coincide with those of experiment.
