Energy Absorption of Auxetic Metallic Yield Damper Made of Shape Memory Alloys by Milad Masodi, Ahmad Ganjali, Hamidreza Irani, Aboozar Mirzakhani

“…In the present study, we present a novel shape memory alloy metallic yielding dampers for energy dissipation and damage control in the steel structural members, composed of an auxetic main member and a negative Poisson member that absorbs energy by plastic deformation mechanism. Using the ABAQUS software, a set of quasi-static nonlinear analyses were performed on the metallic yielding damper with different geometric parameters in order to predict its energy absorption capacity under direct traction loading. …”
