A Framework for Cyclic Simulation of Thin-Walled  Cold-Formed Steel Members in Structural Systems

The objective of this research is to create a computationally efficient seismic analysis framework for cold-formed steel (CFS) framed-buildings supported by hysteretic nonlinear models for CFS members and screw-fastened connections. Design of CFS structures subjected to lateral seismic forces tradit...
