Who We Are. The International Organization on Shape Memory and Superelastic Technologies (SMST) is a volunteer organization made up of industry professionals, scientists and researchers dedicated to disseminating technical education on the unique class of materials which exhibit shape memory and superelastic properties.

Shape memory materials convert heat into strain and vice versa. These materials are often made from metal alloys, which can generate large stresses with small shape changes. Ceramics have certain characteristics that underlie shape memory transformation, but generally crack under strain.

Lai et al. [][1]; see the Perspective by [Faber][2]) introduce a Cited by: Abstract The first chapter of this book delivers a general introduction about the field of shape memory alloys treated as a generic example of adaptive material. The special behavior of SMA materials, also called shape memory effects, is described.

Shape memory and superelastic properties of Ti alloys are strongly influenced by the interstitial alloying elements such as oxygen and nitrogen, which are unavoidable impurities in Ti alloys.

The interstitial alloying elements increase the critical stress for permanent deformation and improve superelastic properties. Shape memory alloys for biomedical applications provides a comprehensive review of the use of shape memory alloys in these and other areas of medicine.

Part one discusses fundamental issues with chapters on such topics as mechanical properties, fabrication of materials, the shape memory effect, superelasticity, surface modification and 3/5(1). This book provides a systematic approach to realizing NiTi shape memory alloy actuation, and is aimed at science and engineering students who would like to develop a better understanding of the behaviors of SMAs, and learn to design, simulate, control, and fabricate these actuators in a systematic approach.

The SMST Conferences focus on real-world issues and applications of shape memory materials. This volume includes almost edited technical papers and is an excellent reference on the latest technical advances, industrial applications, and current state-of-the-art in shape memory and superelastic technologies.

Summary Table of Contents. Hiroyasu Funukubo, Shape Memory Alloys, Gordon and Breach, NY, NY () [ISSN x] is one of the few early books on the shape memory effect that is authored rather than edited. As such, it provides better continuity than many other references.

Basic characteristics and properties of various shape memory/superelastic alloys are described in the first and second sections. The mechanisms of the shape memory effect and superelasticity are then explained, followed by a section on thermodynamics which is Author: K.
