A Composite Steel Plate Shear Walls for Offshore Constructions
A new-type of weldable composite steel plate shear wall, which consists of a steel plate sandwiched by either of two or one composite panels at each side or at one side, has been proposed.

Evaluation of Nonlinear Behavior of Dual Steel Frame-Shear Wall System by a Group of Real Earthquakes [PDF]
Dual system of steel moment frame and steel plate shear wall has many advantages in comparison to the other systems. Since the last four decades the dual system has been used more frequently in new and existing structures.

Research on Failure Modes and Key Parameters of Corrugated Steel Shear Walls
The corrugated steel plate shear wall is an effective and economical lateral load resisting system. And the thin steel plate is easy to buckle. And it is necessary to use much more thickness or ribs to prevent the buckle at out of plane direction, which ...

Recent Studies on Steel Plate Shear Wall Systems
Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) have been used as the primary or part of the primary lateral force-resisting system in design and retrofit of buildings. Development and use of low yield point (LYP) steel with considerably low yield stress and high elongation capacity nowadays provides the possibility to design SPSW systems with improved serviceability,
