摘要

Earthquakes are naturally occurring events demonstrating the power of nature and the catastrophic impact of such power on normal life. Development of new techniques and opting for new materials which are not traditionally used in civil-engineering structures, offer significant promise in reducing seismic risk. Super-elastic Nitinol in the form of wires (orthodontic wires) is a common and well-known engineering material available with dentists all over the world. It belongs to the class of shape memory alloys (SMAs) bearing unique properties such as super elasticity and shape memory effect. The greater flexibility of the material drives many of its applications in the medical industry, but the use of this material in other fields is less known. This communication seeks the suitability of this material for structural applications, especially earthquake risk reduction. A study has been conducted to find the suitability of orthodontic wires in passive vibration control of structures. The super-elastic properties found in these wires are made use of in the development of vibration control devices of re-centering type. Protection of structures from damage during earthquakes can be addressed using passive protection devices designed to provide energy dissipation with re-centering capabilities. Possible application lies in reducing the seismic risk of multi-span bridges, rehabilitation of heritage structures and protection of special structures of national importance.
