The use of prestressing through time as seismic retrofitting of historical masonry constructions: past, present and future perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Unreinforced masonry is one of the oldest construction materials and main component of historical buildings. Masonry is a heterogeneous material with an anisotropic behavior and may fail quasi-brittle during earthquakes.

A finite element method for thermo-mechanical coupling analysis of shape memory alloys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Due to strong thermo-mechanical coupling in shape memory alloys (SMAs), heat generation/absorption during forward/reverse phase transformation can cause temperature variations in the material; influencing its mechanical behaviour.
