Seismic Behavior of Superelastic Shape Memory Alloy Spring in Base Isolation System of Multi-Story Steel Frame

Seismic Behavior of Superelastic Shape Memory Alloy Spring in Base Isolation System of Multi-Story Steel Frame

Owing to excellent re-centering capability and good damping behavior, superelastic shape memory alloys (SMAs) are emerging as a potential new material to enhance the seismic resilience of civil structures. This paper focuses on using base isolation with SMA device for isolated structures. SMA spring...
