Finite Element Simulation of Shape Memory Based Structures Using Beam Elements, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Sohrabpour, Saeed (Supervisor) ; Arghavani Hadi, Jamal (Supervisor)
Abstract
Having unique characteristic behaviors of Shape memory alloys (SMAs) known as shape memory effect (SME), and superelasticity (SE), make them an appropriate choice for innovative engineering applications. Optimum design of SMA applications, calls for constitutive models and finite element simulations. It is evident that using structural elements (bar, beam, plate, shell) considerably reduces computational cost (CPU time) when compared to continuum elements. Therefore, structural elements are usually preferred in the early stages of design process. In this thesis, we simulate shape memory based structures using beam elements.Up to now, we have studied phenomenological constitutive models that...
