Shape Memory Materials and their applications
WebbShape memory alloys (SMAs) are smart materials that change their crystalline structures when subjected to heat or tension, resulting in a macroscopic deformation. When applied to actuators, SMAs present a remarkable load–weight ratio and flexibility, making them suitable for diverse applications. However, challenges such as their energy consumption, … WebbAbstract— Shape memory alloys are mostly functional intermetallics which are now practically being used for making actuators, couplings, medical guide wires etc., and are also used for smart materials, which already exist. In this paper, various developments on shape memory alloys and martensitic barbisan rides
