Modeling of materials with internal variables using a thermomechanical approach
… a one-dimensional constitutive model for the two-way shape memory effect and a one-dimensional constitutive model for piezoceramics have been developed, respectively. In modeling the two-way shape memory effect, a residual stress σ<sub>re</sub> is introduced as a controlling parameter for the …

Self-Regulated Thermal Management with Shape-Memory Alloy Torsional Tubes
… to an increase in component energy density. Shape-memory alloy actuators, which respond with a mechanical shape recovery to variations in temperature, can be used as self-regulated thermal management actuators that are able to respond to environmental thermal changes autonomously. In this …

Application-oriented development of thermoplastic polyurethanes with shape memory properties
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are smart materials, that are capable of changing their shape in response to an external stimulus, typically a change in (ambient) temperature. This change in shape is commonly triggered after a thermomechanical treatment, enabling them to return to their original …
