Multiaxial Fatigue Life Extension of Steel Elements Using Shape-Memory Alloy/Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (SMA/CFRP) Patch
Fatigue cracking is a primary factor hindering the performance of steel bridges. Without alternative load-paths, fatigue failure of a member can lead to sudden and catastrophic collapse of the entire structure. There are currently more than 170,000 steel bridges containing fatigue-sensitive details …
