Overview

Additive Manufacturing of Shape Memory Materials: Techniques, Characterization, Modeling, and Applications outlines an array of techniques and applications for additive manufacturing (AM) and the use of various shape memory materials, covering corrosion properties, material sensitivity to thermal, magnetic, and electrical effects, as well as sensitivity of shape memory properties to AM parameters, including part geometry effects and post-process treatments. Design for AM and a number of different AM methods are discussed, with materials covered including shape memory alloys, shape memory polymers, high-temperature shape memory alloys, and magnetic shape memory alloys. Characterization and modeling methods are also included, as is a chapter dedicated to real-world applications of these production techniques and materials.
