As a destructive phenomenon in most parts of the world, earthquake has threatened the safety of structures and the lives of its inhabitants and is considered as the main problem in the seismic vulnerability of buildings. Steel shear walls are regarded as one of the newest structural systems resistant to lateral load in steel structures. e present study aimed to investigate the impact of effective parameters on cyclic behavior by numerically modeling a steel shear wall and comparing it with laboratory results. e results indicated the significant contribution of the thickness of steel shear sheet so that when the thickness changes to 25%, the final response of the structure increased by approximately 20% and decreased by 15%. 1. Introduction As a destructive phenomenon in most parts of the world, earthquake has threatened the safety of structures and the lives of its inhabitants; reducing the irreparable damage of earthquakes has always been the ultimate goal of researchers and scientists in earthquake engineering. e probability of an earthquake based on the distribution of active faults in Iran in Figure 1 indicates a permanent danger. Researchers have introduced various earthquake-resistant lateral-bearing systems over time. is process has continued from the frames of building materials to introducing the structural control systems. e steel shear wall system (Figure 2) is considered as one of the new seismic systems, which has been approved by the Canadian Steel Code since 1994 and has been recognized by the US Steel Code since 2005. As a destructive phenomenon in most parts of the world, earthquake has threatened the safety of structures and the lives of its inhabitants; reducing the irreparable damage of earthquakes has always been the ultimate goal of researchers and scientists in earthquake engineering. e probability of an earthquake based on the distribution of active faults in Iran in Figure 1 indicates a permanent danger. Various earthquake-resistant lateral-bearing systems have been in- troduced by researchers over time. is process has con- tinued from the frames of building materials to introducing the structural control systems. e steel shear wall system (Figure 2) is considered as one of the new seismic systems which has been approved by the Canadian Steel Code since 1994 and has been recognized by the US Steel Code since 2005. During recent years, when the research on the seismic performance of steel shear walls and their reliability is increased, using these walls, especially in the United States and Japan, has increased significantly [1]. e design regulations have now begun to provide design criteria for such walls due to the relatively comprehensive knowledge of their behavior. e basis of the performance of this structural system is based on using the performance of the diagonal tensile field after buckling of steel sheets. e simple implementation based only on existing technical knowledge and without the need to acquire new skills Hindawi Shock and Vibration Volume 2021, Article ID 3976793, 10 pages https://doi.org/10.1155/2021/3976793
