Abstract

This work illustrates the design, manufacturing and tensile testing of a novel concept of honeycomb structure made of shape memory alloy (SMA) core material. The honeycomb is manufactured using SMA Nitinol ribbons inserted in a special dye and using cyanoacrilate to bond the longitudinal strips of the unit cells. Analytical and Numerical FE models of the ribbons are developed to predict the homogenized properties and the overall tensile test behavior of the honeycomb sample. Good agreement is observed between numerical nonlinear simulations and experimental results carried out at room temperature (martensite phase).
