Nowadays, shape memory polymers (SMPs)-based devices are required to be much smarter produce large recovery and force with lower working temperatures in order enable multi-functionality them. They could play a vital role the advancement of multi-functional soft robot manipulators, biomedical tools wearable where is key challenge must around body temperature, or sustainable smart systems low ene...

A novel magneto-active gel based nanomaterial system is presented to provide precise control of temperature to a localized area in response to externally controlled magnetic stimuli. Integration of ferromagnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4) in the polyethylene glycol (PEG) based thermo-responsive polymer provides the swelling and de-swelling behavior of magnetic stimuli controlled system by generating...

Thickness stretching effect based on shear and normal deformation theory is used in this paper for magneto-electro-elastic vibration analysis of a three-layered curved nanobeam including a nano core and two piezo-magnetic layers. Size-dependency is included in derivation of governing equations of motion based Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. The initial curvature is accounted in calculatio...

Thermo-elastic damping is a significant dissipation mechanism in high quality factor microstructures. In this paper, thermo-elastic damping of the in-plane vibration of fully clamped rectangular micro-plates has been studied. The governing equation of the micro-plate motion and heat conduction equation were derived. Then, The Galerkin method has been used to solve the coupled heat-displacement ...

Employing the Ginzburg-Landau phase-field theory, a new coupled dynamic thermo-mechanical 3D model has been proposed for modeling the cubic-to-tetragonal martensitic transformations in shape memory alloy (SMA) nanostructures. The stress-induced phase transformations and thermo-mechanical behavior of nanostructured SMAs have been investigated. The mechanical and thermal hysteresis phenomena, loc...

Abstract A numerical study is performed to examine the influence of a non-uniform magnetic field on thermo-hydraulic behaviour ferrofluid. The analysis done in context differentially heated semi-circular annulus where dipole with its distinct location and strength used obtain different configurations. variables are computed by solving coupled set flow equations, energy equations Maxwell’s magne...
