본 논문에서는 형상기억합금의 특징적인 거동을 모사하기위한 구성방정식을 제안한다. 제안되는 구성방정식은 기존의 소성모델을 기초로 하는 현상학적인 모델로, 소성 경화이론에서 사용되는 항복곡면에 대응되는 상변이 곡면을 정의하여 형상기억합금의 비선형 거동을 모사한다. 단, 상변이 곡면이 1개만 존재하는 소성모델과는 다르게, 오스테나이트에서 마르텐사이트로의 정방향 상변이와 마르텐사이트에서 오스테나이트로의 역방향 상변이를 각각 해석하기위해 독립적인 2개의 상변이 곡면을 정의해주게 된다. 기계적 하중만이 아닌 열적 하중의 변화에도 비선형 거동을 보이는 형상기억합금의 특성을 반영하기위해 상변이 곡면은 응력과 온도의 함수로 정의되며, 이렇게 정의된 상변이 곡면을 바탕으로 리턴 매핑 알고리즘을 적용하여 열적하중과 기계적하중의 변화에 따른 형상기억합금의 거동을 모사하는 구성방정식을 제안하였다.

형상기억합금이 삽입된 복합체는 힌지나 추가적 작동기 없이 그 자체로서 지능 구조의 역할을 할 수 있어 많은 분야에서 활발히 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 형상기억합금(Shape Memory Alloy) 선이 삽입된 $\cap$자형 복합재를 제안하고, 형상기억합금과 모재가 정해진 경우의 곡률 변화에 영향을 주는 주요 설계 변수를 복합재의 너비, 두께, 형상기억합금의 편심률을 설계변수로 가정하고 유한요소 해석과 패널 제작 및 실험을 통해 검증한다. 먼저 라고다스(Lagoudas)모델을 형상기억합금의 구성방정식으로 이용한 유한요소해석모델을 구성하여 수치해석을 수행하고, 11 종류의 형상기억합금 선이 삽입된 유리섬유강화복합재(Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic) 패널을 제작하여 열하중에 따른 곡률변화를 관찰한다. 해석결과와 실험결과의 비교를 통해 해석모델의 타당성을 검증하며, 해석을 통해 각 설계 변수들의 곡률변화에 대한 영향을 파악한다.

In this research, the thermomechanical responses of shape memory alloy(SMA) actuators and their applications in the structures combining strip SMA actuators are investigated. The numerical algorithm of the 3-D SMA thermomechanical constitutive equations based on Lagoudas model is developed using user material(UMAT) subroutine written by FORTRAN. For the numerical results, the ABAQUS finite element program has been utilized with UMAT subroutine of the numerical algorithm of SMAs. The interactions between the host structure and SMA strip actuator are numerically investigated.

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are smart materials. The unique characteristics of SMAs enable the production of large force and displacement. Hence, SMAs can be used in many applications such as in actuators and active structural acoustic controllers; the SMAs can also be used for dynamic tuning and shape control. A SMA torque tube actuator consisting of SMA tubes and superelastic springs is proposed, and the behaviors of the actuator are investigated. From the results of heat transfer analysis, it is proved that the SMA torque tube actuator with both resistive heating of SMA itself and a separate conventional heating rod in the tube core has good performance. The behavior of an actuator system was analyzed by performing a contact analysis, and the twisting motion was noticed when checking the actuation. 3D SMA nonlinear constitutive equations were formulated numerically and implemented by performing a nonlinear analysis by using Abaqus UMAT.

Shape memory alloys (SMA) are often used in smart structures as active components. Their ability to provide large recovery forces and displacements has been useful in many applications, including devices for artificial muscles, active structural acoustic control, and shape control. Based on the 3-dimensional SMA constitutive equation in this paper, the radial displacement control of externally pressurized circular and semicircular composite cylinders under external pressure with a thin SMA layer bonded on its inner surface or inserted between composite layers in investigated using 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Upon actuation through resistive heating, SMAs start to transform from martensitic into austenitic state, simultaneously recover the prestrain, and thus cause the composite cylinders to go back to their original shapes of the cylinder cross-sections.

In this study, we observe the application of shape memory alloy(SMA) into smart structures for repeatable actuation, because SMA changes its material properties and characteristics progressively under cyclic loading conditions and finally reaches stable path(state) after a certain number of stress/temperature loading-unloading cycles, so called 'training'. In this paper, SMA wires that have been in a stable state through the training are used. Stress-strain curve of the SMA wire at different temperature levels are measured. In addition, we observe other important effects such as the rate effect according to strain rates for rapid actuation response. The current work presents the experimental test using SMA wire after training completion by mechanical cycling. Through these tests, we measure the characteristics of SMA. With the estimated SMA properties and effects, we compare the experimental results with the simulation results based on the SMA constitutive equations.

In this study, the flow control system with shape memory alloy in jet engine inlet was suggested to adjust the shock boundary layer interact~on for supersonic flight system. It consisted of the flap with shape memory alloy, spar with steel, and fixing device with aluminum alloy. The advantages of itself are a simple configuration, a passive air circulation by using the flap deflection due to pressure difference, and no need to be required the auxiliary devices. Finite element analysis was conducted to predict the thenno-mechanical behavlor of the flap system with shape memory alloy. The user-defined subroutine UMAT was implemented with ABAQUS to accon~modate the thermo-mechanical constitutive relation of shape memory alloy.

외부에서 자극이 가해질 때 상전이(phase transformations)하는 방식으로 대응하는 재료들이 최근 다양하게 연구되고 있다. 예를 들어 형상기억합금은 주변 온도의 변화에 대응하여 그 형상을 변화시키는데 이 과정은 미시적으로는 격자의 형태가 - 예를 들면 정방형 격자에서 입방형격자로 혹은 그 반대로 - 변화하는 과정이다. 강유전체 역시 외부에서 인가되는 전계의 변화에 대응하여 그 격자구조가 변하는데 그와 함께 기계적 변형이 동반하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 상전이를 하는 재료에 적용될 수 있는 1차원 구성방정식을 강유전체의 예를 들어 제시하고 간단한 계산결과를 보이기로 한다. 본 모델을 확장하여 강유전체에서의 분극역전(polarization reversals)에 대한 3차원 유한요소 모델을 개발하고 응용하려는 시도가 이루어지고 있다.
