Printed on acid-free paper S pringer International Publishing AG Switzerland is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Pref ace Shape memory alloys (SMA) are multifunctional materials with remarkable characteristics for application in medical, industrial, and consumer products. On one hand they are suitable as superelastic materials for implants and medical devices; on the other hand they can be used as actuators using thermal or electrical energy to generate strokes and actuating forces. D ue to their benefi ts in industrial applications like miniaturization of drives, massive weight reduction, noiseless actuation, and intelligent intrinsic functions, they are interesting as substitution and superior concepts for actuators. Especially actuators for utilization in valve drives are in the focus of shape memory alloy appli- cations, as so presented in this book. O ften research and development collaborations with industrial and academic partners focus on analogical questions about the application of these smart materials in drives. Often these drives have to be used in valves, as several famous applica- tions have already proven the suitability for series. Nevertheless, the calculation of displacements, lifetime, and dynamic properties are just three examples in the wide fi eld of shape memory alloy actuator develop- ment which often are unclear to an unexperienced engineer. H ence, the aim of this book is to introduce shape memory alloy technology, with focus on valve drive applications. While the basic chapters present the valve and SMA technology basically, the rear chapters discuss proceedings during product development. The book is written for designers in machine-, valve-, automotive-, aerospace engineering, product developers, and product managers as well as for teachers and students at universities of science and mechanical engineering.
