A numerical analysis on the behavior of steel plate shear walls with different number and thickness of transverse stiffeners

According to recent studies, steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) have been identified as a reliable system for lateral load resistance in high seismic regions. Considering the importance of stiffeners’ geometry in SPSWs, in this study we attempted to numerically analyze the behavior of a steel frame...
