Original Abstract

The contribution presents a procedure for the determination of the direction of crack initiation from a rectangular notch in the shape memory alloy (SMA) sensors mounted on SMA backbone used as an active catheter. The problem is solved as the homogeneous case of the bi-material rectangular notch. The solution is based on the knowledge of the strain energy density distribution which follows from the evaluation of the two existing singular terms.

Keywords
