Abstract

SMA (shape memory alloys) materials are a kind of smart material that undergoes shape changes with respect to temperature variations. In this chapter, the authors focus on the microstructure, classifications, fabrication, and future applications of these materials in brief. They discuss the four main types of SMA processing techniques, which include mechanical, thermomechanical, powder metallurgy, and melting route. Finally, its applications in various fields like transportation, civil structures, robotics, aerospace, automation, and medical fields will be briefly discussed. © 2024, IGI Global.
