The SMA is under pseudoelastic condition and the fibers are embedded （bonded） to the host material. The influences of temperature, volume fraction of SMA and longitudinal modulus of the host material on the stress-strain relation and energy dissipation of the SMA hybrid composite lamina are discussed. The results indicate that the stress-strain curve of the lamina per cycle shows a hysteresis loop. The hysteresis damping decreases with increasing temperature and with decreasing volume fractions of SMA. In addition, the hysteresis damping is nearly independent of the longitudinal modulus of the host material under strain controlled loading. However, it depends dramatically on the longitudinal modulus of the host material under stress controlled loading, which shows the SMA composite lamina has high pseudo-elastic hysteresis damping when the longitudinal modulus of the host material is low.展开更多

The deformation is the superposition of the elastic, the thermal and the phase transformation deformation caused by the transformation from one to the other among the high temperature phase, the low temperature phase and the stress induced phase. The phase transformation is controlled by the driving force, i.e., the Gibbs energy difference between the phases.展开更多

It is capable of describing deformation behaviour of polycrystalline materials under triaxial stress state as well as of monocrystalline materials under one-dimensional condition. Total strain rate is sup- posed to be composed of elastic strain rate and transformation strain rate. Deformation behaviour of Cu-Zn-Sn alloy and Ti-Ni alloy is simulated by use of the proposed constitutive relation. It is shown that simulated results are in a good agreement with experimental data.展开更多

The histories of displacement and velocity of the mass, and the response of stress of SMA are calculated with Brinson’s model and the piecewise linear model. The difference of results of the two models is not significant. The calculation with piecewise-linear model needs no iteration and is highly efficient.展开更多
