Abstract
This paper studies the energy dissipation and damage in thin walled members that experience local buckling and presents an approach to model cold-formed steel (CFS) axial members that experience local buckling deformations. The model is implemented in OpenSees using hysteretic models for CFS axial members calibrated using experimental responses. Results from thin-shell element simulations using ABAQUS show that energy dissipation in thin plates dissipates through inelastic strains and yielding that concentrates in damaged zones that extent approximately the length of a buckled half-wave (Lcr). Generally damage accumulates in one zone but when more than one damaged zone occurred the energy dissipation increased proportionally. The results from the plate simulation and experimental results from cyclic tests on axially loaded CFS members (previously performed by the authors) support the assumptions for the modeling approach presented for CFS members governed by local buckling. Results demonstrate the capabilities of the modeling approach to efficiently and accurately simulate the response of the CFS axial members experiencing local buckling. The model presented can be used to facilitate the performance assessment of cold-formed steel lateral load resisting systems (e.g., shear walls) under different hazard/performance levels, a capability needed for the advance of performance-based earthquake engineering of cold-formed steel buildings.

Local Buckling Hysteretic Nonlinear Models for Cold-Formed Steel Axial Members
This paper studies the energy dissipation and damage in thin walled members that experience local buckling and presents an approach to model cold-formed steel (CFS) axial members that experience local buckling deformations. The model is implemented in OpenSees using hysteretic models for CFS axial members calibrated using experimental responses. Results from thin-shell element simulations using ABAQUS show that energy dissipation in thin plates dissipates through inelastic strains and yielding that concentrates in damaged zones that extent approximately the length of a buckled half-wave (Lcr). Generally damage accumulates in one zone but when more than one damaged zone occurred the energy dissipation increased proportionally. The results from the plate simulation and experimental results from cyclic tests on axially loaded CFS members (previously performed by the authors) support the assumptions for the modeling approach presented for CFS members governed by local buckling. Results demonstrate the capabilities of the modeling approach to efficiently and accurately simulate the response of the CFS axial members experiencing local buckling. The model presented can be used to facilitate the performance assessment of cold-formed steel lateral load resisting systems (e.g., shear walls) under different hazard/performance levels, a capability needed for the advance of performance-based earthquake engineering of cold-formed steel buildings.
