## 1 Introduction  
With the development of society, structures are becoming higher and higher. Due to the safety and comfort requirements, vibration control has been widely used in civil engineering [1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6]. The method of vibration control is various, setting dampers on the structure [7; 8; 9; 10; 11; 12; 13; 14; 15; 16; 17] and adding shear link elements for wall structures [18; 19], for example. On the other hand, with urbanization, large-scale and efficient construction is becoming more and more important in civil engineering. The fundamental way to meet this requirement is industrialization, which is constructing buildings in the form of industrial production. The assembly structure is a kind of structure system whose structural components are prefabricated in the factory, and then assembled on-site. It is widely used by government and real estate developers because of its advantages, e.g., small workload, less pollution, and high quality of the components. It is a green, environmentally-friendly, and broadly-applicable form of residential structures. The assembly structures originated in Europe, and the construction technology of prefabricated components has been quite mature and widely used in civil engineering in Europe and other industrialized countries. However, compared with the cast-in-place concrete, the overall performance of the assembly structure is often questionable due to the joint part of the old and new concrete, resulting in poor seismic performances, which has become the weakness in terms of its promotion. In order to meet the seismic requirements of high-rise buildings, there have been many studies on the seismic performance of assembly structures. In the 1950s and 1960s, France first proposed a prefabricated concrete slab structure, which is made from a series of wall panels by fitting joints, and its seismic performance depends on the joint strength and its integrity. To prevent the occurrence of shear slip, the horizontal seam of the large plate structure is generally designed to be strongly connected as infinitely rigid. The vertical joints play the role of the shear wall beam to ensure the effective force transmission between the wall panels. Many researchers have carried out experimental studies and numerical simulations of this structure [20; 21; 22; 23]. It has been found that the elastic deformation of the wall under a strong earthquake is dominated by rocking deformation, and the horizontal seam between the shear wall and the foundation gradually forms a continuous crack. The deformation caused by the earthquake concentrates mainly at the horizontal seam between the large slab and the foundation, while the upper walls damage slightly. The seismic energy is dissipated mainly through the seam at the bottom of the wall, resulting in a large tensile deformation of the vertical reinforcement passing through the cross-section of the seam. Structural measures (such as adding a damper or energy-consuming steel plate) at the seam can enhance the seismic performance. In order to improve seismic performance of the assembly structural system, the post-tensioned prestressing technology is prevalent in North America, which stretches and anchors steel stranded wires through the prefabricated wallboard and its horizontal seam. Such technology controls deformations and damage of structures under strong earthquakes, resulting in resilient structures [24; 25; 26; 27; 28]. The prefabricated component of this structure is \"ductile connected\", that is, the bending resistance of the connecting part is lower than that of the prefabricated component itself. The structure shows rocking deformation under seismic action. The plastic deformation mainly concentrates at the horizontal seam, while the upper wall damages slightly, which is easier to repair after the earthquake. As the prestressed reinforcements are unbonded, they still maintain elasticity after large deformation. Consequently, the recovery ability of structures is good, resulting in small residual deformation after the earthquake.
