Shape restoration using shape memory materials
This project involved the investigation of NiTi’s shape memory capabilities when applied externally to a cracked beam sample. Since it was not feasible to obtain life-size or actual concrete beams, samples had to be scaled down such that the entire experiment could be carried out in the laboratories...
