The Vibration Control of a Shape Memory Alloy Spring under Temperature Change
Details
In this study, the vibration control of a TiNi shape memory alloy coil spring under temperature change is described. At first, the results of uniaxial tensile test for the TiNi wire and coil spring are described. By use of the linear model, the stress distributions and load-displacement curves for TiNi coil spring are predicted analytically. The numerical calculations are performed by use of the material constants obtained by the previous tests. At last, the vibration control of TiNi shape memory alloy coil spring under temperature change are discussed.
