Efficiency of shape memory alloy seismic restrainers for several conditions of bridge joints
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2023 Movement joints are needed in bridges to accommodate longitudinal expansion and contraction. Enough joint width needs to be available to accommodate not only longitudinal expansion but also expected movements of joints during earthquakes. This may result
