SMA-形状记忆合金

• Fatigue life
TiNi ——105 ~ 107 CuZnAl ——102 ~ 103
• Self-cost
Relatively expensive to manufacture compared to other metals such as steel and aluminium
In Mechanical—— Pipe Coupling
Βιβλιοθήκη Baidu



The SMA coupling has an internal diameter smaller than the pipe’s outer diameter Cool the coupling using liquid nitrogen so it transforms to martensite phase When in the martensitic phase the coupling can be stretched to a larger ID than the pipe and easily fitted over the pipe. The join can then be heated to return to its original shape and thus exert a large pressure on the pipe.
Transformation without stress
Transformation with stress

•Applying load detwin the martensite •releasing of the load the material remains deformed •Temperature above A0f reverse phase transformation

4.Problems
• Sensitive critical transformation temperature:
Ti-50at.%Ni——Ms： 60 ℃ Ti-51at.%Ni——Ms：-30 ℃ As：78 ℃ As：-12℃
SMA Wings
• Aircraft with SMA wings would be much more compact and efficient • SMA wires are placed through the wing which contract when heated and expand when cooled • heated by an electrical current, when it is switched off ,they are cooled by the surrounding air

3.Applications
In Aerospace——Aerial
“That’s one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind”
——Neil Armstrong
Aircraft Wings
• Normally aircraft use large hydraulic systems which are expensive and need a lot of maintenance.

In everday life——Thermostatic mixing valve
High temperature: SMA spring (A) is harder than bias spring
Low temperature: SMA spring (M) is softer than bias spring
Good SME and formability, biocompatible, etc. Expensive?
(Cu-Zn-Al, Cu-Al-Ni)
Cheaper, etc. bad formability and mechanical properties?
(Fe-Mn-Si)
Good mechanical properties, formability etc. Corrosion?
SME —— After plastic deformation, when heated to a certain T , the material may return to original shape SMA —— An alloy having a shape memory effect
