형상기억 물질은 임의의 형상을 유지하다 외부의 자극에 의하여 원래의 형상으로 회복되는 물질이다. 이와 같은 형상기억 물질은 형상기억합금과 형상기억고분자로 대별되며, 형상기억효과를 응용하려는 용도 및 특성에 따라 선택되어 사용되고 있다. 본고에서는 형상기억합금과 형상기억고분자의 특성 및 원리에 대해 정리하였으며, 형상기억합금에 비해 가볍고 저렴하며 외부 자극의 종류도 다양하게 선택할 수 있는 형상기억고분자의 용도를 정리하였다. 향후 형상기억고분자는 wearable 디스플레이, 태양광 패널 및 비침습성 의학소자 등 그 용도가 다양할 것으로 전망된다.

형상기억합금은 2원 또는 3원 합금에 의해 외력과 온도 변화에 따라 오스테나이트 상과 마르텐사이트 상으로의 상변환을 유발한다. 이와 같은 형상기억합금은 두 가지의 고유한 특성으로 인해 최근에는 의학용 기구나 소형 액츄에이트 및 여러 분야에서 적용되어지고 있다. 이때 형상기억합금의 고유한 특성은 모상인 오스테나이트 상의 형상을 기억하여 외력에 의해 마르텐사이트 상으로 변형된 후에도 오스테나이트 종료온도 이상으로 가열하게 되면 원래의 형상으로 되돌아가는 형상기억 효과와 오스테나이트 종료온도 이상에서 넓은 탄성 영역을 가지는 초탄성 효과 등이다.(중략)

형상기억재료는 형상기억효과, 회복변형효과, 형상고청효과, 진동제어효과 등의 특성으로 인하여 중요한 지능재료(smart materials)의 하나로 기대되고 있다. 형상기억 재료로는 합금, 세라믹, 고분자, 겔 등을 들 수 있지만 Ti-Ni 합금(Nitinol)이 가장 많이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 형상기억고분자는 형상기억합금에 비하여 가볍고 형상회복률이 높으며 가공이 쉽고 투명할 뿐만 아니라 염색이 가능하기 때문에 물성과 경제적인 면에서 유리하다. (중략)

A new three-dimensional model for predicting the relationship between the prestrain of the composite and the amount of phase transformation of shape memory alloy inducing shape memory effect has been proposed by using Eshelby's equivalent inclusion method with Mori-Tanaka's mean field theory. The model composite is aluminum matrix reinforced with short TiNi fiber shape memory alloy, where the matrix is work-hardening material of power-law type. The analytical results predicted by the current model show that most of the prestrain is induced by the plastic deformation of the matrix, except the small prestrain region. The strengthening mechanism of the composite by the shape memory effect should be explained by excluding its increase of yield stress due to the work-hardening effect of the matrix.

One of main advantages of composite using smart material as reinforcement can be controlled cracks behavior inside the composite. If the smart composite is applied as part of the structure, the use of the shape memory effect of the smart material is the best way to protect the propagation of cracks generated in the structure while use. In this study, the optical manufacturing conditions for the smart composite were derived. In order to evaluate the shape memory effect by shape memory alloy, the tensile load was applied to the smart composite and stress distribution was inspected. And then, the smart composite was heated to a certain temperature and the shape memory alloy would shrink to the original shape. Finally, at this point the recovering status of stress using photoelastic instrument was discussed.

In this paper, active shape control of composite structures actuated by shape memory alloy (SMA) wires is presented. The thermo-mechanical behaviors of SMA wires were experimentally measured. Hybrid composite structures were established by attaching SMA actuators on the surfaces of graphite/epoxy composite beams using bolt-joint connectors. SMA actuators were activated by phase transformation, which induced by temperature rising over austenite finish temperature. In this paper, electrical resistive heating was applied to the hybrid composite structures to activate the SMA actuators. For (aster and more accurate shape/deflection control of the hybrid composite structure, PID feedback controller was designed from numerical simulations and experimentally applied to the SMA actuators.

Impact resistance of shape memory alloy hybrid composite(SMAHC) plates were experimentally investigated. Shape memory alloy(SMA) have large failure strain and failure stress and can absorb large strain energies through phase transformation. SMA wires were embedded in composite plates to improve their weak impact resistance. Tensile tests of SMA wires were performed at various temperature to investigate their thermo-mechanical properties. Low-Velocity impact tests of several types of composite plates with SMA/Al/Fe were performed. Embedding SMA wires was most effective to improve impact resistance of composite plates. The effects of SMA position on impact resistance were also investigated.

The recovery force and displacement occur due to the phase transformation from the martensite phase to the austenite phase induced by the mechanical loading or thermal loading. These recovery force and displacement depend on an initial geometrical configuration of SMAs and loading conditions. Although the SMAs generally generates large recovery forces, the sufficient recovery displacement cannot be expected without a proper design strategy. The functionality of SMAs is limited due to the unbalance between the large recovery force and the small recovery displacement. This study suggests the double coil SMA spring in order to amplifying the recovery displacement induced by the phase transformation. By predicting the recovery displacement of doble coil SMA springs and one coil SMA springs induced by thermal loading, we show that the double coil SMA spring not only mitigate the unbalance of performance but also have a large recovery displacement for its recovery force than one coil SMA spring.

The influence of the strain-rate on the superelastic behaviors of shape memory alloys (SMAs) wires is experimentally and numerically investigated. The one-dimensional SMA constitutive equations considering strain-rate effect is developed. The evolution of stress-strain curves of SMA wires is examined with various strain-rates. Results show that the superelastic behaviors of SMAs may significantly be changed depending on the variation of strain-rate.
