Active SMA Fibers’ Effect on the Pullout Behavior of a Steel Bar Embedded in Concrete

This study investigated the bond behavior and radial crack between concrete and reinforcing bars using cold-drawn shape memory alloy (SMA) crimped fibers controlled by the temperature and volume fraction of the fibers. In this novel approach, the concrete specimens containing cold-drawn SMA crimped...
