Investigation of Residual Stresses in Shape Memory Alloy (Sma) Composites
… concentric cylinder micromechanics model and an SMA composite thermoelastic beam theory were developed to analyze the micromechanical and structural-level thermal and transformational stresses for nitinol composites induced by nitinol wires embedded in a host matrix. A series of warpage …

Application of SMA fiber composite as seismic reinforcement for concrete moment resisting frames
… and damping characteristics. The use of shape memory alloys (SMAs) with their nonlinear-elastic behavior in the composite could potentially provide solution for this problem. Small diameter super-elastic Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) SMA wires, coupled with polymer matrix is sought in this …
