By combining shape memory alloy (SMA) fibers with conventional HPFRCs, self–actuating HPFRCs were recently developed. This paper explores a novel way of using such self–actuating SMA–based HPFRCs to develop more seismically resistant and cost–effective, auto–adaptive frame buildings. A numerical investigation on the use of self–actuating HPFRCs in highly energy absorbing, replaceable, “fuse” zones is presented first. Resulting SMA–HPFRC “fuses” can adjust their response to the level of seismic overload. A brief discussion of the possible use of such self–actuating “fuses” in auto–adaptive structures is also provided. While in an actual auto–adaptive structure “triggering” of the desired self–actuating HPFRC fuse behavior will require the use of “sensing” and control elements, this paper focuses only on the behavior of SMA–HPFRC fuses and their effect on the overall structural response.}, number={1}, journal={COMPUTER-AIDED CIVIL AND INFRASTRUCTURE ENGINEERING}, author={Krstulovic-Opara, N and Nau, J and Wriggers, P and Krstulovic-Opara, L}, year={2003}, month={Jan}, pages={78–94} } @article{krstulovic-opara_thiedeman_2000, title={Active confinement of concrete members with self-stressing composites}, volume={97}, number={3}, journal={ACI Materials Journal}, author={Krstulovic-Opara, N. and Thiedeman, P.
