Seismic Performance of RC Building Using SMA DeviceBy Vajreshwari Umachagi, Katta Venkataramana
Abstract: In the present study, the seismic performance of RC frames with superelastic shape memory alloy damper (SMAD) is investigated. Shape memory alloys (SMA) belong to a class of smart materials capable of regaining its original shape when subjected to heat at a certain temperature. Hence, SMA is used as energy dissipater and re-centering components. A numerical investigation is carried out with nonlinear time history analysis of a five-storey RC frame …
