Abstract:The software ,SAP2000,is used for the pushover analysis of three shear wall components which is form three finished experiments using layered shell element model based on effect of different age, and after comparing the the skeleton curves of the hysteresis curves obtained from the finished experiments with the PUSHOVER curves, We found that these two curves are similar. Then we analyzed the nonlinear dynamic time history of a 12 story shear wall structure with sap2000 in the same way above and analyzed different indicators of the structure model, figured out that the behavior of the structure model is matched with the real structure.The final conclusion is that The numerical simulation of the RC shear wall structure is feasible by using the layered shell element method based on material degradation and this method can also provide certain guidance to the practical engineering.
