Seismic Performance of Reduced‐Strength Steel MRFs With SMA‐Based Superelastic Friction Dampers: An Experimental Investigation
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) exhibit excellent self‐centering capability due to their stress‐induced phase transformation, making them highly suitable for applications in resilient infrastructure. This study investigates the seismic performance of reduced‐strength moment‐resisting frames (MRFs) equipped with SMA‐based...
