Abstract We analyze generic sequences for which the geometrically linear energy $$\begin{aligned} E_\eta (u,\chi )\,{:}{=} \,\eta ^{-\frac{2}{3}}\int _{B_{1}\left( 0\right) } \left| e(u)- \sum _{i=1}^3 \chi _ie_i\right| ^2 \, \mathrm {d}x+\eta ^\frac{1}{3} |D\chi _i|({B_{1}\left( }) \end{aligned}$$ <mml:...

SMA has drawn massive interest and hobby in today’s years a great form of an extensive sort commercial applications, due to their precise superior properties, this concern improvement been bearing with the useful resource way carried out research studies. can heal its original shape at certain temperature even under maximum loads applied huge inelastic deformation. In overview, we describe prim...

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) can produce large strains when deformed (e.g., up to 8%). Heating results in a phase transformation and associated recovery of all the accumdated strain. This strain recovery can occur against large forces, resulting in their use as actuators. Thus an SMA element can integrate both sensory and actuation fitnctions, by inhercEtly s e x k g a c h m ~ c ia temperature an...
