Abstract

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are advanced funcitonal materials due to their particular properties such as shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity, including superelastic effect. They also known as smart materials since they can "remember" their original shape after being deformed or heated and thus, can act as sensors and/or actuators.
