Abstract
This paper proposes an energy dissipation device based on shape memory alloys (SMA) for frame structures. By setting anchorage device below and near the inflection point of the first storey columns, a set of force cable and energy dissipation cable using SMA are installed symmetrically in the anchorage device and the bottom of them fixed in the ground. Analytical study including the push-over and time-history analysis were investigated by ANSYS finite element program to a new CFST frame and an ordinary CFST frame. Studies have shown that the device can effectively control the structural displacement response and acceleration response, dissipating large amounts of earthquake energy. Therefore, the energy dissipation devices had a better value and prospects in engineering.
