Abstract
In this paper, experiments and finite element analysis methods were adopted to study the flexural performance of shape memory alloy hybrid composites (SMAHC). The effect of embedding content and position of shape memory alloy (SMA) wire on the flexural properties of composite laminates was analyzed, and the optimal content and position of SMA wire were obtained. The optimal number of SMA wires for SMAHC laminates (B-2) is four. Compared with GFRP laminates, the flexural modulus of B-2-4 laminates increases by 5.19%, while the strength decreases by 5.76% on average. The finite element model of the SMAHC laminate was established by using ABAQUS finite element analysis software, and the validity of the model was verified by the comparison between the simulation results and the experimental results. The microscopic morphology results show that the weak interface between the matrix and SMA has a certain influence on the flexural performance of SMAHC specimens.
