This paper investigates the stress recovery stress induced in the newly developed Fe-based
SMA and then studies the prestressing effect of embedded Fe-SMA wires on the flexural …

Superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) wires embedded in mortar beams show a
recentering capacity, however, shape memory effect wires can provide a prestressing effect …

This paper assesses the bond strength of crimped fibers manufactured by a cold-drawn SMA
wire using a continuous method. Several pullout tests are conducted to study bond strength …

In this study, the effect of recovery stress on the toughness of cementitious materials was
investigated using randomly distributed SMA fibers in concrete. The composite was …

A new analytical model for a functionally graded material (FGM)/shape memory alloy (SMA)
laminated composite cantilever beam subjected to a concentrated tip load is developed. The …

This paper aims to analytically derive bending equations, as well as semi-analytically predict
the deflection of prismatic SMA beams in the martensite phase. To this end, we are required …

This study investigates mechanical properties and recovery stress of NiTi shape memory
alloy (SMA) wires prestrained by different degrees of cold rolling. Using differential scanning …

In this paper, based on three-dimensional phenomenological model and using a user-
defined material subroutine mechanical behavior of shape memory alloy (SMA) wire ropes …

A new analytical model is derived for cantilever beams made from superelastic shape
memory alloy and subjected to tip load. The deformation of the beam is described based on …

In this article, an analytical solution is presented for twinning deformation effect of a prismatic
shape memory alloy beam-column. To this end, a reduced one-dimensional Souza model is …
