Study on Thermo-Mechanical Behaviors of Shape Memory Polymer Beam

Shape memory polymer (SMP) is a new smart material and has attracted much attention of people and beam structure plays an important role in application of SMP. Thus, it is meaningful to study the thermo-mechanical behaviors of SMP beam. In this paper, a new constitutive model is established to study the thermo-mechanical behaviors of SMP beam. Based on the previous work, the SMP constitutive equation was further derived and the material...
