Pull Out

Due to the weak interface in shape memory alloy wire–reinforced composites, the influence of interphase on the mechanical properties and stress distribution of hybrid composites is of considerable importance. In this article, a three-cylinder axisymmetric model using a pull-out test is developed to predict stress transfer and interfacial behavior between shape memory alloy wire, interphase, and matrix. In this article, only superelasticity behavior of the shape memory alloy wire is considered. Based on the stress function method and the principle of minimum complementary energy, stress distribution is derived for three different cases in terms of loading and boundary conditions (thermal loading model, intact model, and partially debonded model). Inhomogeneous interphase and different radial and hoop stress components in each phase are considered to achieve deeper physical understanding. Finite element analysis also performed to simulate stress transfer from the wire to the matrix through the interphase. To evaluate the accuracy of this model, the results of the work are compared with the results of the two-cylinder model proposed by Wang et al. and finite element results.

Active Vibration

In this paper, epoxy matrix composite beams with embedded TiNi (SMA: Shape Memory Alloy) fiber are applied to enhance the strength and fracture toughness of the machinery components. It is also well known that SMA shows the remarkable changes of stiffness and damping ratio between martensite at lower temperature and austenite at high temperature. A shape recovery force is associated with inverse phase transformation of SMA. The effects of heating with current and pre-strain in TiNi fiber of SMA on vibration characteristics are experimentally investigated. The active vibration control is achieved by controlling the current and pre-strain.

Based on experimental results reported in the reference, Liang-Rogers’ constitutive model for SMA is used to simulate the stress-strain curves of NiTi shape memory alloy films under uniaxial tension with isothermal conditions. The effects of film compositions and temperature on the tensile behavior of NiTi shape memory alloy films are discussed. By comparing the simulation results with the experimental results, it is found that the simulation curves agree basically with the experimental curves except that the phase-transformation regions are wider in the simulation curves. This demonstrates that the Liang-Rogers’ model can be used to predict the thermomechanical behavior of shape memory alloy films roughly. This study provides some theoretical foundation for the quantitative description and prediction of the actuation mechanism when shape memory alloy films are used as micro-actuators.
