Bond behaviour of ribbed near-surface-mounted iron-based shape memory alloy bars with short bond lengths
Many existing concrete buildings worldwide require improvement in structural integrity. Previous research has proven the effectiveness of iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA or memory-steel) reinforcements for the prestressed strengthening of structures. The unique function of the material, i.e.,...
