Elastic-plastic Analysis of Combined Mode I and Iii Crack-tip Fields under Small-scale Yielding Conditions
WITHIN THE context of the small-strain approach, combined mode I and III near-tip fields of a stationary crack in an elastic-plastic solid are obtained by finite element analysis under small-scale yielding conditions. To investigate the behavior of the near-tip fields, the normalized stresses ahead of the crack tip are plotted as functions of the normalized radial distance to the tip for severa...
متن کاملApplication of Shape Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation: A Review
In the last two decades, there has been an increasing interest in structural engineering control methods. Shape memory alloys and seismic isolation systems are examples of passive control systems that use of any one alone, effectively improve the seismic performance of the structure. Characteristics such as large strain range without any residual deformation, high damping capacity, excellent re...
متن کاملShape Memory Alloys
THE TERM SHAPE MEMORY ALLOYS (SMA) is applied to that group of metallic materials that demonstrate the ability to return to some previously defined shape or size when subjected to the appropriate thermal procedure. Generally, these materials can be plastically deformed at some relatively low temperature, and upon exposure to some higher temperature will return to their shape prior to the deform...

are compared with the experimental results. In these test results the shape memory alloys behavior as: super elasticity under various temperatures, loading rate effects, asymmetry in tension and pressure, various loops of loading and unloading, hydrostatic pressure effects, different proportional tension-shear biaxial loading and unloading, and also deviation from normality due to non-proportio...
متن کاملOn the Desing and Test of a Prototype of Biped Actuated by Shape Memory Alloys
In this paper the design of a biped robot actuated with Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) springs with minimum degrees of freedom is presented. SMA springs are a class of smart materials that are known for their high power to mass and volume ratios. It was shown that utilizing spring type of SMAs have many advantages as large deformation, smooth motion, silent and clean movement compared to ordinary typ...
