Examines the engineering of smart connection systems, specifically focusing on their design and seismic analysis. The text explores the integration of concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns with partially restrained (PR) connections to enhance structural durability. A primary innovation discussed is the application of shape memory alloys (SMAs), such as Nitinol, which provide buildings with recentering capabilities and superior ductility during earthquakes. Through a combination of three-dimen
