Abstract:
The 20 peer-reviewed papers collected here together offer a plenitude of up-to-date information on "State-of-the-Art Research and Application of SMAs Technologies". The papers are conveniently arranged into: Chapter 1: Materials, Phase Transformation and Microstructure, Chapter 2: Engineering, Chapter 3: Low Dimensionality, Chapter 4: Applications.Review from Book News Inc.: Vincenzini (World Academy of Ceramics, Italy) et al. draw together 20 papers from Symposium B, "State-of-the-Art Research and Applications of SMAs Technologies," of CIMTEC 2012, the Fourth International Conference on "Smart Materials, Structures and Systems," held in Montecatini Terme, Italy, in June 2012. They cover topics related to shape memory alloys (SMAs), such as materials, phase transformation, and microstructure, including heat-treatment processing, magnetic properties and twin boundary motion, and memory effects in various materials; the engineering of memory alloy foams, memory wires, a magnetic shape memory alloy energy harvester, and other devices; low dimensionality; and applications for cable vibration, rehabilitation, and other areas. Contributors are engineers, physicists, materials scientists, and others from Asia, Europe, Canada, and India.
