Abstract
Abstract In this study, a new type of seismic isolation device, called shape memory alloy (SMA) wire-based roller bearing (SMA-RB) is developed and introduced. The SMA-RB has been designed, manufactured, and experimentally tested. This bearing consists of cylindrical roller bearings and SMA wires with straight or cross configurations, as supplementary damping elements. In such a smart bearing, the superelastic (SE) SMA wires are passed through the hooks/pulleys attached to the supporting plates of the bearings in different configurations. The rollers provide lateral flexibility, and SMA wires supply energy dissipation and self-centering (SC) properties. In the manufacturing stage, a new mechanism for coupling wires (i.e. SMA wire joiner/coupler) is proposed. The results show that SMA wires, made of nickle titanium (NiTi), provide a SC damping mechanism with almost zero residual deformation which can effectively control the device from over-displacement. While using pulleys and newly designed wire joiners in the SMA-RB, the bearing can experience a stable cyclic behavior. Since the rollers generate a negligible amount of frictional force, the SE NiTi wires with a flag-shaped hysteresis mainly contribute to the overall shear hysteretic response of the SMA-RB. A triangular-shaped constitutive model can be used to accurately describe the hysteretic behavior of SMA-RB with different wire configurations.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
