Shape Memory Alloy-Based Smart Civil Structures with Self-Sensing and Repairing Capabilities
Abstract Self-sensing and actuating properties of shape memory alloys (SMAs), NiTi wires and NiTiCu wires, are experimentally studied. Strain rate dependent constitutive model of austenitic SMAs through phase transformation test is proposed. Self-sensing and repairing civil structures embedded with NiTi wires are proposed and the repairing effectiveness on cracks is verified through test of RC beams embedded with NiTi wires. Self-sensing passively controlled civil structures attached with SMA dampers are proposed. Two innovative SMA dampers with self-sensing, re-centering and energy dissipation capabilities are developed and shaking table tests of a five-story frame attached with SMA dampers at the first story are carried out.
