Investigation of Cu based shape memory alloy as a reinforcement for metal matrix composite

Mr. Deepjyoti Basak

Abstract


This paper investigates the options and substitute of few Copper based shape memory alloys such as Cu-Zn-Al, Cu-Al-Mn, and Cu-Al-Be over the other conventional shape memory alloys used as a reinforcement in metal matrix composite. Copper based shape memory alloys are commercially attractive but due to their limited properties their application is limited. There are several reasons which are still covered due to lack of experiments and research. With the help of this present study few gaps were identified and develop synthesizing routes to enhance the use of Cu- based shape memory alloy.
