Functionally graded NiTi shape memory alloys
In this study, in order to obtain a functionally graded material, NiTi strips were annealed at 350°C, 450°C and 550°C in a furnace using an assembly that allowed a temperature gradient along them, and their transformation temperatures were studied by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore, the strips were bent at both ends and dipped into a water bath at room temperature which was...
متن کاملStability of functionally graded shape memory alloy sandwich panels
The stability of sandwich panels subjected to the simultaneous action of a uniform temperature and a uniaxial compression is considered. At elevated temperatures, the buckling load can be increased by using shape memory alloy (SMA) fibers in resin sleeves embedded within the core, at the midplane of the sandwich panel. The best results are achieved when the spacing of SMA fibers across the pane...
متن کاملShape-memory polymers.
Material scientists predict a prominent role in the future for self-repairing and intelligent materials. Throughout the last few years, this concept has found growing interest as a result of the rise of a new class of polymers. These so-called shape-memory polymers by far surpass well-known metallic shape-memory alloys in their shape-memory properties. As a consequence of the relatively easy ma...
متن کاملDesign strategies for shape memory polymers
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are polymeric materials capable of recovering from a ‘fixed’ temporary shape to a ‘memorized’ permanent shape upon exposure to an external stimulus. Two structural elements are required for a polymer to exhibit useful shape memory: a network structure that defines the permanent shape (the ‘memory’), and a switching segment that induces a significant change in the mo...
متن کاملShape memory polymers for active cell culture.
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are a class of "smart" materials that have the ability to change from a fixed, temporary shape to a pre-determined permanent shape upon the application of a stimulus such as heat(1-5). In a typical shape memory cycle, the SMP is first deformed at an elevated temperature that is higher than its transition temperature, T(trans;) [either the melting temperature (T(m;))...
