“…The proposed model is simple and flexible, so it can be a useful tool for the design process of such applications and the choice of optimal control schemes. The response of hybrid cantilever composite plate was analyzed by Cho and Ree [97] using a nonlinear shell finite element implementation. The obtained results show the ability of the suggested procedure to compute the thermomechanical behavior of such composites and demonstrated good agreement with experimental results from previous studies (Fig.…”

Following their discovery in the early 60's, there has been a continuous quest for ways to take advantage of the extraordinary properties of shape memory alloys (SMAs). These intermetallic alloys can be extremely compliant while retaining the strength of metals and can convert thermal energy to mechanical work. The unique properties of SMAs result from a reversible difussionless solid-to-solid phase transformation from austenite to martensite. The integration of SMAs into composite structures has resulted in many benefits, which include actuation, vibration control, damping, sensing, and selfhealing. However, despite substantial research in this area, a comparable adoption of SMA composites by industry has not yet been realized. This discrepancy between academic research and commercial interest is largely associated with the material complexity that includes strong thermomechanical coupling, large inelastic deformations, and variable thermoelastic properties. Nonetheless, as SMAs are becoming increasingly accepted in engineering applications, a similar trend for SMA composites is expected in aerospace, automotive, and energy conversion and storage related applications. In an effort to aid in this endeavor, a comprehensive overview of advances with regard to SMA composites and devices utilizing them is pursued in this paper. Emphasis is placed on identifying the characteristic responses and properties of these material systems as well as on comparing the various modeling methodologies for describing their response. Furthermore, the paper concludes with a discussion of future research efforts that may have the greatest impact on promoting the development of SMA composites and their implementation in multifunctional structures.

“…Recently, vibration and thermal post-buckling of SMA¯ber reinforced hybrid composite beams with symmetric and asymmetric lay-up based on the Brinson model were analytically investigated by Asadi et al 31,32 The above literature review reveals that most of the studies performed on the SMA¯ber reinforced structures were conducted using the¯nite element method or other numerical solutions. 26,28,30 Furthermore, it is found from this survey that basically no work has been done on the vibration analysis of hybrid composite moving beams embedded with SMA¯bers.…”

The aim of this paper is to investigate the free vibration of hybrid composite moving beams embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA)¯bers. The nonlinear equations of motion are derived based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory in conjunction with the von Karman type of nonlinearity in strain-displacement relations via the extended Hamilton principle. Also, the recovery stress induced by the SMA¯bers is computed by applying the one-dimensional Brinson model and Reuss scheme. Then, an analytical approach in used to solve the nonlinear equation of motion for the simply supported shape memory alloy hybrid composite (SMAHC) moving beams. Based on the analytical solution, several parametric studies are presented to show the e®ects of various parameters such as volume fraction, pre-strain in the SMA¯bers, temperature rise and velocity on the fundamental frequency of the SMAHC moving beams. Due to the lack of similar results in the specialized literature on the subject of interest, this paper is likely to¯ll a gap in the state of the art of the related research.

“…In all of these studies, thermomechanical responses of SMA fibers have not been extensively investigated, except few attempts that have extracted the approximate curves from experimental results. A few studies have been developed by using the phenomenological model to express the constitutive characteristics of SMA fibers [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. Roh et al [35] investigated the thermal snapping phenomenon in shell panels by the finite element method.…”

“…Roh et al [35] investigated the thermal snapping phenomenon in shell panels by the finite element method. Cho and Rhee [36] introduced a nonlinear finite element approach for modeling the hybrid laminated composite shell reinforced by SMA fibers subjected to the thermomechanical loading. Nonlinear dynamic and stability responses of laminated composite beams containing SMA fibers were investigated by Asadi et al [39,40].…”
