Seismic Response of Single Degree of Freedom System with Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) Damper
Abstract Shape memory alloys can effectively be used as a damper in structures due to its excellent re-centring (self-restoration) and energy dissipation properties. The distinctive hysteresis exhibited by the shape memory alloys enables it to be used in re-centring devices which can be connected to real structures. Hence, the analysis of a single degree of freedom system coupled with the SMA damper becomes crucial. This paper discusses the nonlinear time history analysis of a SDOF system with SMA damper modelled in MATLAB/SIMULINK subjected to harmonic and random excitation. The responses obtained from the system with and without SMA damper are compared.
