Abstract

An innovative fatigue strengthening solution for metallic structures that takes advantage of the shape memory effect of an iron-based shape memory alloy (Fe-SMA) and the bridging mechanism offered by the bonding technique has been proposed and examined. Fatigue tests on cracked steel plates with bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) and nonprestressed and prestressed Fe-SMA strips were conducted. The experimental results demonstrate that the bonded prestressed Fe-SMA strips are much more effective than CFRP strips, extending the fatigue crack growth life by a factor of 3.51. The proposed innovative solution is highly effective in retarding fatigue crack growth in metallic structures.
