Abstract

An adaptive composite containing a shape memory alloy as an active component is the subject of the paper. This composite utilizes the unique properties of shape memory alloys (SMA), which change their crystalline structure in response to the change temperature and stress. Previous research shows that the combination of a shape memory alloy as an active and the elastic material as a passive components allows one to improve the properties of the SMA itself (create two-way shape memory) and to engineer a composite material with controlled superelastic properties [1,2].
