\(N_{t}\) and \(M_{t}\) are the peak values of theoretical in-plane force and resisting moment, respectively; \(N_{e}\) and \(M_{e}\) are the peak values of experimental in-plane force and resting moment, respectively; \(f^{\prime}_{t}\) is the theoretical deflection corresponding to \(N_{t}\); \(f^{\prime}_{e}\) is the experimental deflection corresponding to \(N_{e}\)
