Modeling, Fabrication, and Testing of a SMA Hybrid Composite Jet Engine Chevron Concept

Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 2006
This study presents a fabrication method, bench top test results, and numerical model validation for a novel adaptive jet engine chevron concept based upon embedding shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators in a composite laminate, termed a SMA hybrid composite (SMAHC).

Thermal vibration analysis of SMA hybrid composite double curved sandwich panels

Composite Structures, 2019
Abstract This work analyses the thermal vibration of a double curved sandwich panel (DCSP) with embedded pre-strained shape memory alloy (SMA) wires hybrid composite face sheets and soft core. The von Karman nonlinear displacement–strain relationships are here applied to handle large deflections due to a thermal loading.

Ballistic impact resistance of graphite composites with superelastic SMA and Spectra hybrid components

38th Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference, 1997
The effect of adding small amounts of high strain hybrid components on the impact resistance of graphite epoxy composites subjected to projectiles traveling at ballistic velocities (greater than 900 ft/sec) has been studied. The hybrid components tested include superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) and a high performance extended chain polyethylene ...

A Finite Element Model for SMA Hybrid Composite Plates

2006
A finite element model is proposed for Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) reinforced composite thin plates. The plate and the SMA fibers are modeled with different elements in the two dimensional setting. Fibers embedded off the plate midplane are modeled via rigid body connections.

Design of pull-out stresses for prestrained SMA wire/polymer hybrid composites

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2005
Abstract Shape memory alloy (SMA) materials possess many unique mechanical, thermal and thermal-mechanical properties that govern their temperature-dependent shape memory, superelastic and pseudoelastic effects. SMA actuators, in the forms of wire or strip embedded into polymer-based composite structures are able to control the structures' shape and ...
