| Abstract | Materials design has recently become one of the key topics in the development of smart adaptive composites. The different material constituents of the hybrid polymer composites with embedded shape memory alloy elements /SMA-composites / have to be combined and positioned in such a way that predetermined functional properties are obtained. Due to the complexities arising from the inherently non-linear and hysteretic thermomechanical responses of the SMA elements, modeling of the functional behavior of the SMA-composites became an indispensable part of the SMA-composite technology. This paper demonstrates how the SMA polymer composites can be designed using a recently developed SMA-composite model. The simulations carried out in a preliminary stage of the smart composite design help to find out optimum material parameters of the SMA wires (Young's modulus and CTE of austenite |
