Abstract This study explores the development of a shape memory alloy (SMA)‐based hybrid self‐centering brace that combines NiTi superelastic cables with viscoelastic dampers. First, behavior individual components brace, is, SMA and damper is characterized under various experimental conditions. Then, three prototype braces maximum force capacity 172 kN are designed fabricated. The tests conducted to reveal response increasing loading displacement amplitude. effect rate training cycles on...
Abstract This study investigates the response of a shape memory alloy (SMA)-based isolation system that combines multiple groups SMA cables and lead rubber bearing (LRB). The device, named as multi-level SMA/lead (ML-SLRB), is designed such it maintains its efficiency under frequent, design extreme levels seismic events. Two large-size ML-SLRB devices were fabricated. proposed systems was evaluated together with conventional LRB increasing amplitudes cyclic loads. effects loading rate...
This study presents a finite element model for hybrid self-centering damper considering the rate and temperature effects explores of different design parameters on response. The damper, called as superelastic friction (SFD), consists shape memory alloy (SMA) cables frictional energy dissipation mechanism. experimental response SMA cables, unit overall at loading frequencies are used to develop numerical damper. Once validated is obtained, parametric studies carried out evaluate...
This paper investigates the seismic and collapse performance of shape memory alloy (SMA) braced steel frame structures considering effects various brace design parameters ultimate state SMAs. An SMA-braced building is designed to have comparable strength stiffness with a steel-moment resisting selected as case study building. Then, deformation capacity SMA braces in initially reference are systematically varied. First, static pushover analysis incremental dynamic employed illustrate...
This study explores the mechanical response of a high-damping rubber damper (HRD) under different loading conditions. HRD is typical viscoelastic that consists 2 layers elastomer compound sandwiched between 3 steel plates. The used in this synthetic isoprene reinforced with carbon black and designed to provide high damping capacity relatively low stiffness. Four specimens displacement 75 mm at 300% shear strain were fabricated. Each was subjected harmonic investigate effects amplitude,...
Shape memory alloy (SMA)-based seismic isolation systems can successfully reduce the peak and residual displacements of bridges during strong earthquake, but they commonly lead to an increased force demands in substructure. This study explores development SMA cable-based negative stiffness isolator alleviate this problem. The proposed is composed superelastic cables a frictional sliding bearing with convex surfaces. limit forces transferred superstructure provides energy dissipation, while...
Abstract This study presents a novel hybrid self-centering solution, namely, shape memory alloy (SMA)-viscoelastic brace (SVHB), to enhance structural seismic resilience and meanwhile, overcome some shortcomings of existing braces. The commences with detailed introduction the working principle SVHB, followed by series tests on individual SMA cables viscoelastic dampers (VEDs). After gaining basic understanding behavior critical components, comprehensive experimental SVHB specimens...
Nowadays, 3D laser scanning technology is extensively employed in laboratory investigations of steel structural components, providing accurate geometric dimensions to reduce uncertainties caused by indeterminate geometry experimental results. It often used conjunction with the Finite Element (FE) Method and analytical solutions, which are more deterministic operators research on structures. However, establishing a common methodological framework for transferring or mapping 3D-scanned...
In order to enhance the therapeutic value of curcumin in liver cancer treatment, glycyrrhetinic acid-modified pH-sensitive liposomes (GA-pH-Lip@Cur) was developed.GA-pH-Lip@Cur prepared using a thin film dispersion ultrasonication method, and optimal formulation process selected through single-factor experiments Box-Behnken design-response surface methodology. The were evaluated for their morphological appearance, particle size, vitro release at different pH levels, biocompatibility....
