Post-earthquake resilience of engineering structures is an important research area of sustainable earthquake engineering in recent years. Restoration and collapse control are realized with the constraint at the base released and the wall panels post-tensioned by unbonded prestressing tendons

which can reduce damage level and even eliminate residual drift owing to the gap-opening mechanism. As an important component of earthquake resilient structural system

self-centering concrete shear wall system is developing continuously. Self-centering shear wall such as controlled rocking wall

hybrid rocking wall

coupled wall with vertical joint

and coupled wall with coupling beam can accomplish restoration

but various dissipating devices result in significantly different levels of energy dissipating. Traditional force-based design is not applicable

so displacement-based performance design should be presented with the improvement of residual drift control

definition of performance level

and section limit state. Fiber model

lumped plasticity model

multi-spring model

and finite element model can accurately simulate the behavior of self-centering shear wall

but there are some differences in parameter sensitivity.Thus

some current research challenges and prospects were presented to provide theoretical and technical support for the development and application of self-centering shear wall structure system: the elastic and inelastic behavior of prestressing tendon which can cause prestress loss and insufficient deformation capacity during rocking

the connection performance between self-centering shear wall and adjacent structural components such as the floor system and its influence on self-centering ability

collapse control with the failure of post-tensioning tendon and dissipating device

and utilization of multiple dissipating rocking interfaces between wall panels to mitigate higher mode effects and estimation of residual drift.
