“…Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are novel metals with distinct features and desirable potential to reduce deformation. SMAs have well hysteretic behavior, excellent re-centering capability, and large damping capacity, and they have been designed to use in structural vibration control and seismic isolation devices [ 32 , 33 ]. Qiu et al [ 34 ] evaluated the dynamic responses of the Steel BRBFs and FeSMA BRBFs under earthquake ground motions.…”

The beneficial effects of buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) in bridge engineering have attracted widespread attention in recent years. Firstly, this paper introduces the basic working mechanism of traditional BRBs, and the new forms and new materials of BRBs are also being studied. Secondly, the responses and performances of BRBs applied to (piers) girder bridges, cable-stayed bridges, and arch bridges are systematically studied. Besides, studies on the connection nodes between BRBs and structures have been paid more and more attention. By comparing and analyzing the damping effect of BRBs alone and that of BRBs with other seismic isolation devices on a bridge, it is determined that a reasonable BRB layout can effectively improve the seismic performance of the bridge with better energy dissipation capacity and load-carrying capacity than other components, but they are less used in practice and do not have mature specifications to be applied on different bridges. Finally, the following trends in BRB development in bridge research are discussed: the diversity of BRB forms, applications of BRB, node connection security, and combined damping measures. These areas should be explored through in-depth theoretical and experimental research.

“…Hence, experimentally, the addition of a plastic layer makes it possible to protect in a partial way the electric connection (Nasution et al, 2014;Khalid et al, 2020;Wan et al, 2022). Obviously, an inner part of SMA may absorb loads and vibrations, avoiding damage and fatigue (Tabrizikahou et al, 2022). Since the three layers work together to support each other, the SMA is able to keep the electrical wire linked and can avoid immediately detaching the electrical power.…”

Fatigue failure of wires is a frequent issue that evolves over time as a result of utilizing the profile under variable stress and temperature. In this article, an innovative study makes it possible to propose a protective tool for metal profiles against fatigue using shape memory alloys (SMA). Smart actuators like SMA are able to push back sudden stresses above the elastic limit, therefore, are characterized by high resistance to fatigue and even against corrosion due to their strong thermomechanical coupling. Besides, the study provides the results necessary to add a layer based on the shape memory tube to protect the important connectors for industrial systems and automotive industries. The conductivity of electrical current in various electronic devices depends on the copper material, which is good at conducting electricity and heat but weak against mechanical forces and hence easily susceptible to fatigue. Thereby, the elastic regime of copper is different from that of SMA, and in order to adapt the properties of two materials, a mathematical study can describe the behaviour of two combined systems is important for the analysis of the cyclic effect and for adapting the proposed actuator in wiring technology. Therefore, the study shows the great potential of the proposed SMA tube with its superelastic behaviour to increase the predicted lifespan of metallic wires against corrosion and fatigue. The lifetime of the conduction system with the protective SMA is increased remarkably and can reach up to 105cycles under the action of the stress of an amplitude of 550 MPa, the finite element simulation shows that the system of SMA combined with a 4 mm wire undergoing significant stress up to 490 MPa that can reach a deformation of 7% and return to the initial state without residual deformation. The simulation's results look at the evolution of stress, strain, fatigue lifetimes, and anticipated damage, and they match the experimental results of SMA tube properties rather well. Consequently, the verification of the proposed model confirms the improvement in the lifespan of studied wires compared to wires without SMA encapsulation.

“…As a classical form of mechanical connection, the bolted joints are widely used for fastening two or more parts together to constitute a component in modern engineering structures due to their properties of easy to disassembly, low cost, and high load-bearing capacity. [1][2][3] For different working environments and load conditions, there are convenient ways to design bolted joints and select the appropriate fasteners. 4 However, the existence of the connection interface disrupts the consistency and continuity of the structure, resulting in the transfer of loads and motions through the contact interface for the bolted joints, which in turn affects the mechanical properties of the whole structure.…”

Bolted joints play an important role in aerospace, machinery manufacturing, weapons and other fields, and the contact pressure distribution at the connection interface seriously affects the service performance of the bolts. Contact pressure analysis is an essential basis and reference for structural design, calibration, inspection, and safety monitoring of bolted connection structures. Considering the preload force and frictional contact between the joint components, a block mapping hexahedron mesh generation and finite element modeling method for bolted connections is presented, and the finite element models of single and double bolted structures are constructed. Then, an experimental test platform for measuring contact pressure distribution is constructed. Comparison of finite element analysis results with experimental results for the contact pressure distribution in the single and double-bolted joints; the root mean squared error of contact pressure distribution is less than 5%, which verifies the effectiveness of the finite element models. After that, the models are used to study the contact pressure distribution in single-bolted joints and contact pressure coupling effect of double-bolted joints, and the normal stress distribution features within members and contact pressure distribution contour are revealed for single and double-bolted joint. Finally, the finite element models are adopted to investigate the effects of the clamping length, preload, material properties, hole clearance, and bolt size on contact pressure distribution in single-bolted joints. The coupling effect of contact pressure distribution in double-bolted joints under different preloads and geometric parameters are also examined.
