Built in dampers for stayed cables in bridges via SMA. The SMARTeR-ESF project: a mesoscopic and macroscopic experimental analysis with numerical simulations
(Elsevier, 2013-04)
Article
Open AccessShape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are good candidates for solid-state dampers appropriate for the oscillations of bridge stay cables because of their large recoverable strain, hysteresis and reasonable fatigue-life. This work ... -
Experimental study of damping in civil engineering structures using smart materials (NiTi - SMA): application to stayed cables for bridges
(2010)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyExperimental study of damping in civil engineering structures was done using smart materials (NiTi SMA). The study is focused on the stayed cables for bridges. The cable oscillations are induced by wind, rain or traffic. ... -
SMA in mitigation of extreme loads in civil engineering: damping actions in stayed cables
(Trans Tech Publications, 2011-10-27)
Article
Open AccessGuaranteeing the use of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) in mitigation of extreme load effects requires a deep study of the SMA behavior according to the specific requirements of the application. In particular, for a storm is ... -
SMA passive elements for damping in stayed cables: experimental results and simulation
(2012)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe use of shape memory alloy (SMA) wires as passive elements for damping the vibrations of stayed cables requires that the essential conditions of SMA necessary for the application are well established. The specific ...
