Abstract
This study examined the seismic performance of composite shear walls framed with concrete-filled steel tubes (CFST) utilizing aeolian sand concrete. Six specimens were designed and tested under low cyclic load with a constant axial compression ratio. The research aimed to analyze how the CFST frame affects the seismic behavior of shear walls made from aeolian sand concrete and understand the underlying influence mechanism. The results showed significant differences in failure modes between CFST-framed and conventional aeolian sand concrete shear walls, with the former exhibiting a lower degree of failure and instances of plastic hinge failure. The hysteretic curve of CFST-framed walls displayed noticeable pinching, indicating enhanced seismic energy dissipation capacity and ductility. The damage analysis model based on the energy damage principle was found to be suitable for conducting seismic damage analysis of these walls. A shear capacity model was also established to accurately depict the variation in bearing capacity under low cyclic loading, providing valuable insights for engineering applications.
