AbstractIn the paper, the influence of shape memory alloy (SMA) by varying the parameters such as volume fraction, orientation, and temperature on the hybrid-SMA composite laminate subjected to low-velocity impact is studied. A theoretical model for the composite laminated plate bonded with SMA reinforced layers is presented. The constitutive relation of the SMA layer is obtained by using the method of micromechanics. The governing relations obtained can be used for theoretical predications of thermomechanical properties of SMA plies in this paper. The analytical expressions for the hybrid SMA composite plate are derived based on Tanaka's constitutive equation and linear phase transformation kinetics presented by Liang and Rogers.The laminated plate theory, first-order shear deformation theory and minimal potential energy principle is utilized to solve the governing equations of the hybrid composite plate and calculate the absorbed energies including tensile, shear and bending.An orthogonal array and analysis of variance is employed to investigate the influence of the mentioned parameters on the energy absorption of the hybrid laminated plate. The results showed that the effects of the phase transformation temperature are more significant than the effects of the volume fraction and orientation of SMA on structural energy absorption.

The response of laminated hybrid composite beam with embedded shape memory alloy wires subjected to impact of multiple masses is analytically investigated. Two degree of freedom spring-mass system and Fourier series are used in order to study the low velocity impact phenomenon on the resulting hybrid composite beam. A linearized contact law is chosen to calculate the contact force history. The effect of pseudo elasticity of wires as well as the recovery stresses generated in shape memory alloy wires due to shape memory effect is investigated. The beam is subjected to impactors with various masses, radii, and initial velocities. Impacts are occurred on the top and/or bottom surface of the beam. The effects of volume fraction of shape memory alloy wires, location of embedded wires, location of impacts and pre-strain in shape memory alloy wires on the contact force history and the deflection curve of the beam are investigated. The obtained results illustrated that embedding shape memory alloy wires in the laminated composite beam caused the deflection of the beam to occur more local at the points of impact, in comparison with the beams without shape memory alloy wires. Moreover, embedding 0.2 volume fraction of the shape memory alloy wires reduced the maximum deflection of the beam subjected to impact of 2 impactor masses by 57% and 3 impactor masses (on both sides) by 12%. Pre-straining the wires caused more reduction in deflection of the beam under impact loading.
