Shape memory alloys are functional materials which offer attractive potentials such as reversible strains of several percents, generation of high recovery stresses, high power-to-weight ratio, high damping and high fatigue life. This report gives an introduction to the origin, mechanism and characteristics of shape memory effect and superelastic effects. Different properties and characterization techniques are also discussed. Applications in engineering and bio-medicine are discussed.

November 1, 1999 ‘Amit BatraAbstract
Shape memory alloys are functional materials which offer attractive potentials such as re-
versible strains of several percentage, generation of high recovery stresses, high power-to-
weight ratio, high damping and high fatigue life. This seminar gives an introduction to the
origin, mechanism and characteristics of the unique phenomena of shape memory effect and
superelastic effects. Different properties and characterisation techniques are also discussed.
Various applications in the fields of engineering and bio-medicine are briefly discussed.
