Enhancing Mechanical Behavior and Energy Dissipation in Fiber-Reinforced Polymers through Shape Memory Alloy Integration: A Numerical Study on SMA-FRP Composites under Cyclic Tensile Loading
Conventional fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have a relatively linear stress–strain behavior up to the failure point. Therefore, they show brittle behavior until the failure point. Shape memory alloys, in addition to having high ductility and good energy dissipation capability, are highly resistant...
