The Longitudinal Compression Capacity of Hollow Concrete Cylinders Prestressed by Means of an SMA Wire

This paper deals with the mechanical behavior of hollow concrete cylinders prestressed with nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti)-shape memory alloy (SMA) wires wound around them. Prestresses can be created by the thermal activation of the memory effect of SMA wire placed on the outer surface of concrete cylinder...
