EVALUATION OF THE SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF THIN REINFORCED CONCRETE SHEAR WALL INVIGORATED WITH FRP YARN UNDER LATERAL FORCE

In this article we studied the non-linear behavior of reinforced and non-reinforced concrete shear wall considering the real stress-strain curves of the concrete, steel and FRP in a three-dimensional way by use of limited elements method. For using the limited components method, by use of ABAQUS software, the reinforced and non-reinforced concrete shear walls were modeled in a three dimensional way and were exposed under lateral loads, and the fraction pattern and destruction mechanisms in the original wall were reinforced by the reinforcement method such as use of FRP materials and at this stage the response of the reinforced wall was compared with the functioning of the original one, and the extent of the effect of using the reinforcement method against the lateral loads was determined. At last, we can conclude that the reinforced concrete shear wall with FRP materials has a better functioning than other reinforcement methods. In addition, use of CFRP screens has less final displacements compared with AFRP and GFRP screens.
