Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Composite plate shear walls/concrete filled (C-PSWs/CF) are new lateral force-resisting systems for tall buildings. In the event of a moderate or severe earthquake, coupled composite plate shear walls/concrete filled (CC-PSWs/CF) sustain damage in their composite coupling beams. The damage spread over the height of tall buildings can be challenging to repair without building closure, business disruption, and downtime. This paper explores the feasibility of using replaceable steel coupling beams in CC-PSWs/CF to improve their post-earthquake repairability and thus minimize economic losses. Detailed finite element models are developed and validated for CC-PSWs/CF. A design methodology is also presented and validated for CC-PSWs/CF with replaceable steel coupling beams. The lateral response of five archetype walls of 4–16 stories with the proposed replaceable steel coupling beams is assessed using modal, equivalent lateral force (ELF), pushover, and cyclic analyses in ABAQUS. Nonlinear response-history analyses are also performed in OpenSees. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using replacing steel coupling beams in CC-PSWs/CF. Damage is limited to steel shear links. The adequacy of the proposed design is also confirmed.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
