Assessment of the Seismic Response of CLT Shear Walls Using the EEGBW, a Bouc?Wen Class Predictive Model

Angelo Aloisio and Massimo Fragiacomo    

Resumen

The paper presents an application of the Extended Energy-dependent Generalized Bouc?Wen model (EEGBW) to simulate the experimental cyclic response of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) panels. The main objectives of the paper are assessing the sensitivity of the quadratic error between experimental and numerical data to the EEGBW parameters, showing the fitting performance of the EEGBW model in matching the experimental cyclic response of CLT panels, highlighting the stability of the model in nonlinear dynamic analysis with seismic excitation. The research proves that the considered Bouc?Wen class hysteresis model can reproduce the hysteretic response of structural arrangements characterized by pinching and degradation phenomena. The model exhibits significant stability in nonlinear dynamic analysis with seismic excitation. The model?s stability and versatility endorse its application to simulate structural systems? dynamic response when Finite Element modelling might be an impractical choice.
