형상기억합금(SMA : Shape Memory Alloy)은 일반적인 금속이나 합금에서는 찾아볼 수 없는 형상기억효과(shape memory effect)와 초탄성 (superelasticity) 거동을 보이고 있다. 이러한 특성은 1951년에 금-카드뮴(Au-Cd) 합금에서 처음으로 발견되었으며, 1963년에 미국 해군병기연구소(Naval Ordnance Laboratory)에서 니켈-티타늄 (Ni-Ti) 합금에서 형상기억효과를 발견한 후로 널리 상용화되었다. 니티놀(nitinol)이라고 불려지는 니켈-티타늄 계열의 형상기억합금은 단위 부피당 많은 에너지를 낼 수 있고, 내 부식성(corrosion resistance)과 생화학적 적합성(bio-compatibility)이 뛰어나다. 또한 100,000사이클 이상의 긴 사용수명을 갖기 때문에 작동기(actuator)로서 우수한 특징을 갖는다.

Ni-Ti alloy has excellent corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, shape memory effect and superelasticity, so it has been used widely in biomedical fields. But it has difficulty in casting due to its high melting temperature and oxygen affinity at high temperature. Recently it has been attempted to cast Ni-Ti alloy using new casting machine and investment. The purpose of this study was to examine the superelastic behavior of cast shape memory Ni-Ti alloy and to compare the mechanical properties of the cast shape memory alloy with those of commercial alloys for removable partial denture framework. Ni-Ti alloy(Ni 50.25%, Ti 49.75% : atomic ratio) was cast with dental argon-arc pressure casting machine and Type IV gold alloy, Co-Cr alloy, Ni-Cr alloy, pure titanium were cast as reference. Experimental cast Ni-Ti alloy was treated with heat($500{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) in muffle furnace for 1 hour. Transformation temperature range of cast Ni-Ti alloy was measured with differential scanning calorimetry. The superelastic behavior and mechanical properties of cat Ni-Ti alloy were observed and evaluated by three point bending test, ultimate tensile test, Vickers microhardness test and scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows : 1. Cast Ni-Ti alloy(Ni 50.25%, Ti 49.75% : atomic ratio) was found to have superelastic behavior. 2. Stiffness of cast Ni-Ti alloy was considerably lesser than that of commercial alloys for removable partial denture. 3. Permanent deformation was observed in commercial alloys for removable partial denture framework at three point bending test over proportional limit(1.5mm deflection), but was not nearly observed in cast Ni-Ti alloy. 4. On the mechanical properties of ultimate tensile strength, elongation and Vickers microhardness number, cast Ni-Ti alloy was similiar to Type IV gold alloy, Co-Cr alloy, Ni-Cr alloy and pure titanium. With these results, cast Ni-Ti alloy had superelastic behavior and low stiffness. Therefore, it is suggested that cast Ni-Ti alloy may be applicated to base metal alloy for removable partial denture framework.

The magnetic shape memory alloys have recently received a lot of attention due to the considerable progress achieved in understanding the particular importance and the development of the factors. Among these alloys, the ferromagnetic Co-Ni- alloys have been concerned specially because of the thermoelastic character of the fcc (g) - bct (a) martensitic transformation which exhibits under the action of the temperature (shape memory effect), the stress (superelasticity) and the magnetic field (magnetoelasticity). The morphological, the crystallographical, and the thermal characteristics of thermally induced martensite in Co-35.3Ni-11.3Al(wt.%) and Co-28.1Ni-47.4Fe-3.3Ti (wt.%) alloy have been investigated by the scanning electron microscope (SEM), the X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC).

Nitinol wires are now widely used in the orthodontic field because of their unique shape memory effect and superelasticity. But sometimes Nitinol wires are deformed in clinical use. Fatigue load is possible cause of Nitinol deformation. To determine the effect of fatigue load to the mechanical properties of Nitinol, various fatigue cycle$(1\times10^4,\;2\times10^4,\;3\times10^4,\;4\times10^4,\;5\times10^4,\;1\times10^5)$ were applied to $0.017\times0.025$ inch Nitinol. The results obtained were as follows ; 1. Applied load increased as fatigue cycle increased in three point bending test. 2. Maximum tensile strength and elongation decreased as fatigue cycle increased. 3. Tn SEM, brittle fracture pattern was increased when fatigue cycle increased.

In this paper, the algorithm of Abaqus UMAT is introduced to analyze the shape memory alloy. The SMA has two main effects which show non-linearity. Due to this, it is hard to analyze SMA using analysis tools and to describe all of two effects. Therefore, in this study, the program using Abaqus UMAT based on Modified Brinson model is used to analyze SMA. The martensite fraction, the most important factor which defines SMA motion, is also calculated by Fortran program in UMAT. In addition, the tensile test of SMA specimen is conducted. The availability of algorithm is proved by comparing analysis to experimental result.

Reinforced concrete (RC) framed buildings dissipate the seismic energy through yielding of the reinforcing bars. This yielding jeopardizes the serviceability of these buildings as it results in residual lateral deformations. Superelastic Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) can recover inelastic strains by stress removal. Since SMA is a costly material, this paper defines the required locations of SMA bars in a typical RC frame to optimize its seismic performance in terms of damage scheme and seismic residual deformations. The intensities of five earthquakes causing failure to a typical RC six-storey building are defined and used to evaluate seven SMA design alternatives.

In thls study, the effects of the composltional change of cast Ni-Ti alloys on its characteristics including mechanical properties, phase transformation temperature, and ion releasing rate were investigated. brittle:behavior was shown in the stress-strain curve of the alloy containing low Ti content (Ni-44.0%Ti). By increasing the Ti content, the trend in stress-strain curves changed from that of superelasticity to that of shape memory effect(Ni-44.4%Ti, Ni-45.1%Ti, Ni-45, 5%Ti). Phase transformation temperature ($A_f, {\;}M_5$ point) increased with increasing the Ti content. lon releasing rate of four types of Mi-Ti alloys was very low compared to that of the dental commerical Ni-Cr alloy.

형상기억효과 및 초탄성 특성을 가진 니켈 타이타늄 와이어는 대단히 다양한 제품들이 출시되어 있어서, 보다 적절하면서도 경제적인 재료를 선택하고자 하는 임상가에게 어려움을 주고 있다. 이때, 교정 선재의 기계적 특성에 대한 실험적 연구는 임상가에게 유용한 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 5군으로 나뉘어진 4종의 교정선재(stainless steel, multistranded, superelastic nickel titanium 그리고 themoactivated nickel titanium)에 대한 응력 -변형 실험을 통한 기계적 특성에 대한 비교를 시행하였다. 각 군의 교정선재에 대하여 일련의 여섯 가지 실험이 이루어졌다. 처음에는, 각 군에 대하여 선재가 파절될 때까지, 3차례의 실험이 이루어졌다. 그리고, 각 군에서 세 종류의 실험이 이루어졌는데, 표준하중에서 선재를 신장시켜서, 하중을 주었을 때와 하중을 제거하였을 때의 기계적 특성에 대한 신뢰할 만한 비교를 시행하였다. 각 군간의 차이를 알아보기 위하여 t-test를 시행하였다. 실험결과, 생리적인 치아이동을 위한 기계적 특성, 즉 강성, 탄성률, 힘의 발휘 특성 등을 고려해 볼 때, themoactivated nickel titanium, multistranded wire, stainless steel wire 순으로 바람직하였다. 초탄성은 superelastic nickel titanium에서 나타났다. 섭씨 37도에선 themoactivated nickel titanium의 형상기억효과가 나타났는데, 이것은 온도가 기계적 특성을 증진시키는데 중요하다는 것을 보여준다.

국산 Ni-Ti합금 교정용 선재(ORTHOLLOY)의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 성분, 인장특성, 굽힘특성, 열처리성, 내식성, 이온용출 등에 대해 조사하고 외국산 Ni-Ti합금 선재(SENTALLOY)의 특성과 비교 분석한 결과는 다음과 같았다. ORTHOLLOY는 초탄성 효과를 나타내는 범위내에서의 Ni과Ti 함량을 포함하고 있었다. 인장실험에서 ORTHOLLOY는 연신율 $2\%$에서 $8\%$정도 범위내에서 하중의 변화가 거의 없는 초탄성 효과를 나타내었다. 3점 굴곡실험에서 ORTHOLLOY는 SENTALLOY 보다 같은 변위량에서 높은 하중값을 나타내었고, 초탄성을 나타내는 변위영역에서의 하중 범위는 ORTHOLLOY의 경우 0.014" 에서 80-100g, 0.016"에서 140-180g, 0.018" 에서 150-200g의 값을 나타내었다. $400^{\circ}C,\;500^{\circ}C$의 열처리에 의해 초탄성을 나타내는 하중범 위가 낮아졌고, 각 열처리 온도에서는 시간이 증가함에 따라 초탄성을 나타내는 하중값의 범위가 낮아졌으며 $600^{\circ}C$에서는 10분간의 열처리로 초탄성 효과가 소실되었다. 용출되어 나온 Ni 이온의 양은 SENTALLOY의 0.01ppm미만의 극소량에 비해 ORTHOLLOY에서는 0.3ppm 전후로 높게 나타났다. 침적 실험후 주사전자현미경 관찰을 통한 표면조직 소견은 SENTALLOY에서는 침적 전후 및 침적 시간의 경과에 관계없이 전체적으로 비교적 균일한 양상을 보였으나 ORTHOLLOY에서는 pitting corrosion양상을 보였다.
