The coupling beam work as an important component in coupled shear walls, the strength,stiffness and deformation properties of which have great influence on the seismic performance of shear walls, the steel plate reinforced concrete coupling beams have the advantages as follows: simplify the constructional details, make the construction convenient and reliable performance [1][2]. The numerical simulation model in this paper is a coupled shear wall connected by steel plate reinforced concrete coupling beams in reference [3], and the loading mode is the same as the reference [4] . The relative stiffness effect was explored by study the internal force and displacement of the model with changing the stiffness of the coupling beams and the shear walls while the span-depth ratio is stable .The study will provide a reference for the numerical simulation of the finite element simulation analysis of the coupling beams and the steel reinforced concrete structures.

In order to discuss the effect of different concrete strength on the seismic behavior of the L-shape steel reinforced concrete (SRC) short-pier shear wall , this article analyze three L-shape steel reinforced concrete short-pier shear walls of different concrete strength with the numerical simulation software ABAQUS, revealing the effects of concrete strength on the walls seismic behavior. The results of the study show that the concrete strength obviously influence the seismic performance. With the concrete strength grade rise, the bearing capacity of the shear wall becomes large, the ductility becomes low, the pinch shrinkage effect of the hysteresis loop becomes more obvious.

The steel plate reinforced concrete (SC) walls and roofs are effective protective structures in nuclear power plants against aircraft attacks. The mechanical behavior of the concrete in SC panels is very complicated when SC panels are under the action of impacting loading. This paper presents a dynamic material model for concrete subjected to high-velocity impact, in which pressure hardening, strain rate effect, plastic damage, and tensile failure are taken into account. The loading surface of the concrete undergoing plastic deformation is defined based on the extended Drucker–Prager strength criterion and the Johnson–Cook material model. The associated plastic flow rule is utilized to evaluate plastic strains. Two damage parameters are introduced to characterize, respectively, the plastic damage and tensile failure of concrete. The proposed concrete model is implemented into the transient nonlinear dynamic analysis code ls-dyna. The reliability and accuracy of the present concrete material model are verified by the numerical simulations of standard compression and tension tests with different confining pressures and strain rates. The numerical simulation of the impact test of a 1/7.5-scale model of an aircraft penetrating into a half steel plate reinforced concrete (HSC) panel is carried out by using ls-dyna with the present concrete model. The resulting damage pattern of concrete slab and the predicted deformation of steel plate in the HSC panel are in good agreement with the experimental results. The numerical results illustrate that the proposed concrete model is capable of properly charactering the tensile damage and failure of concrete.

Reinforced concrete continuous box-girder overpass is a common structure form, Wangzhuang overpass is example, this paper adopts universal finite element calculation software to carry out finite element simulation analysis for reinforced concrete continuous box-girder overpass. Considering the influence of overpass structure weight and driveway load, the distribution law of overpass stress and displacement were researched. Analysis results show that, load’s short-term effect combination has great influence on overpass structure, driveway slanting load’s influence on overpass structure’s stress and deformation can not be ignored.

In the process of shaped charge ice-breaking , the response of piers is great under the impact of air, ice, water etc, and relates to integral security of the bridge. For the impact on the pier with burst points of the different distances is simulated by ANSYS / DYNA software, summarizes the impact on the pier of shaped charge ice-breaking, and obtains the maximum stress curves of the pier at different distances. Simultaneously, the paper analyses critical damaging- model of the C30 reinforced concrete piers in detail. The conclusion has a major role in guiding when shaped charge ice-breaking appears.

Low to severe earthquakes occur around the world every year, damaging and causing structural failure in buildings. Consequently, seismic improvements are required for existing buildings that are vulnerable to damage by seismic forces. The objective of this study was to investigate retrofitting strategies in terms of their sustainability. Mandalay, Myanmar, was selected as the study area as it is located near the Sagaing fault, which itself is in a strong earthquake zone (seismic zone 4). A three-storied RC building with a non-seismic design was selected as a case study building. An investigation was carried out into the performance and vulnerability of the building under three earthquake hazard levels. The vulnerability index value was calculated using the Priority Index method. Meanwhile, non-linear static pushover analysis was performed to investigate the performance of the existing building using SAP2000 V14 software. Four different types of retrofitting strategies were considered, namely reinforced concrete shear walls with openings, reinforced concrete shear walls without openings, steel plate shear walls, and finally steel bracing. Among these, it was found that the use of steel plate shear walls was the best retrofitting technique, owing to it having the best performance along with the lowest displacement. Its performance level reached up to the Immediate Occupancy (IO) level even under the conditions of a Maximum Consider Earthquake (MCE).
