Welcome to our video all about Shape Memory Alloys, or SMAs! If you've ever wondered what makes these materials so special, you're in the right place. In a nutshell, SMAs have two incredible properties: Superelasticity and the Shape Memory effect. These qualities have captured the attention of researchers for over 40 years, and today, we're diving deep into understanding them. Get ready to explore these unique material properties in detail!
But that's not all – we're taking it a step further by showing you a real-world example of simulating an SMA wire using Abaqus software with the UMAT subroutine. And the best part? We're backing up our simulation results with an analytical solution, giving you a rock-solid example to learn from.
So, if you're curious about SMAs and want to see them in action, stick around – you're in for an informative and exciting ride!

Due to their ability to recall their original shape, shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been utilized across a wide array of industries, spanning from aerospace to medical fields. Shape memory alloys are a new kind of material that can go back to their original shape after being bent or stretched. Because of this, they're being used more and more in different areas.

Wondering how they work? It's pretty simple. Picture a bent shape memory alloy. When you take away the force and heat it up, it goes back to its original shape.
