Abstract

The first author was recently engaged in an editorial effort [1] having the modeling and applications of shape memory alloys (SMA) as subject. This activity followed a wide band cooperation period with specialty teams, working in Russia, France and Spain, and their associates [2]. The second author is taking care of an attempt to implement SMA devices in the seismic retrofitting of an ancient monument: the Luxor Memnon Colossi, in Egypt [3][4].
