Abstract: Highlights: Static weak magnetic signals agree well with deformation evolution. Fatigue magnetic signals show a clear three-stage evolution. Magnetic hysteresis loops reveal richer damage information than deformation loops. Post-fracture magnetic anomalies coincide with the crack location. Weak magnetic signals can indicate local fatigue damage in Fe-SMA. The normal component is more suitable for damage localization and evaluation. Combined magnetic monitoring and scanning enable time-space damage assessment. Iron-based shape memory alloys (Fe-SMAs) have considerable potential for the active strengthening of concrete structures, yet convenient externally applicable non-destructive methods for identifying local fatigue damage under cyclic loading remain limited. To investigate the weak magnetic response of notched Fe-SMA and its correspondence with local damage evolution, static tensile tests and constant-amplitude fatigue tests were conducted on Fe-SMA specimens with a semi-circular notch. Weak magnetic signals were continuously monitored at a fixed point throughout loading, and surface magnetic-field scanning was performed after fracture. Under static loading, the magnetic signal evolved consistently with the deformation response. Under fatigue loading, the fixed-point magnetic signal exhibited a clear three-stage evolution corresponding to the development of residual deformation. Compared with deformation hysteresis loops, magnetic hysteresis loops contained richer information on local damage evolution. After fracture, abrupt changes in the scanned magnetic field coincided with the actual fracture location, and the magnetic anomaly gradually attenuated as the scanning path moved away from the notch. These results indicate that weak magnetic signals can effectively characterise the evolution of local fatigue damage in notched Fe-SMA, with the normal magnetic component showing greater sensitivity to damage localisation and state assessment.
