Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) have been used in sculptures for quite some time. But only very few of these sculptures have gone on to earn wide recognition, mainly because the working conditions of the SMA must be carefully respected when sculptures are made. ...

Spandrel elements in unreinforced brick masonry buildings with timber floors consist of a masonry spandrel supported by either a timber lintel or a masonry arch. When subjected to seismic loading, the force-deformation relationship of such spandrel element ...
Fragility functions that permit the estimation of damage in pre-1994 welded flange bolted-web beam-to-column moment connections are developed. The fragility functions provide estimates of the probability of yielding and of experiencing fracture as a functi ...
In many unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings reinforced concrete (RC) ring beams are introduced at each storey in order to maintain the integrity of the building when subjected to seismic loading. Such ring beams also contribute to the in-plane resistance ...
Healing of epoxy resins can be accomplished using a combination of embedded ethyl phenylacetate (EPA) solvent loaded capsules and shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. Upon crack formation, the EPA solvent diffuses in the resin and induces swelling which tends t ...
From a shape change point of view, the shape memory effect is not intrinsically reversible. Therefore developing Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) actuators, i.e. devices producing a motion, requires a suitable method to bypass this intrinsic property. Since the s ...
Structural R/C cores are a popular and efficient choice as lateral-load resisting system in medium to tall buildings. The walls of the cores typically present large openings providing access to elevators placed within them. Shear induced by lateral forces ...
The seismic assessment of existing buildings has been underestimated in regions with moderate seismic hazard, such as the North-West Europe. Strong earthquakes, such as the 1356 Basel earthquake, already occurred in such regions and caused severe damage. T ...
We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. The addition of SMA wires shows improvements of healed peak fracture loads by up to a factor of 1.6, approaching the performance of the virgin material. ...
We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. Improvements of healed peak loads by up to a factor of two are observed, approaching the performance of the virgin material. Moreover, the repairs can b ...
