Seismic and Power Generation Performance of U-Shaped Steel Connected PV-Shear Wall under Lateral Cyclic Loading

Table 4

Electric power output of the PV module under the two artificial lighting conditions.

Power (W)Elastic stage Plastic stage No collapse stage
Condition 1 Condition 2

Average value53.02952.25652.58460.585
Percentage 100%98.54%99.16%/

Note:
① The percentage was defined as the average power output ratio to that of elastic stage.
② According to Chinese seismic code [23], the drift angle of elastic stage is within 1/1000 and the plastic ultimate stage is 1/120.
