Abstract

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are a unique class of materials that possess the ability to return to a predefined shape when subjected to specific thermal or mechanical stimuli. This property, known as the "shape memory effect," arises from the transformation between two phases: the low-temperature martensite phase and the high-temperature austenite phase. SMAs have gained significant attention in various engineering fields, particularly in solving complex design problems that require materials with the ability to undergo reversible deformation. These alloys exhibit exceptional properties such as high strength, elasticity, and the ability to absorb significant amounts of energy, which make them ideal candidates for applications in robotics, biomedical devices, aerospace, and actuation systems. This research investigates the unique properties of Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), including their ability to undergo phase transitions between martensite and austenite, and explores their potential to address a wide range of design challenges.
