Various types of passive energy dissipating systems have been introduced for controlling the seismic response of structures during the last few decades. A number of these control devices have been practically implemented in different structures all over the world. Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) is among those passive control systems that have attracted a large attention due to its innate features, i.e., recovering the induced residual strains upon unloading (superelastic effect) or by heating (shape memory effect).This study investigates the seismic behavior of a set of steel structural models with different number of stories and eccentricities equipped with a type of fixed SMA connections. In the...
