Applications:

There are four commonly used types of applications for nitinol.

• Free Recovery: nitinol is deformed at a low temperature, and heated to recover its original shape.
• Constrained Recovery: The same, except that recovery is rigidly prevented, and thus a stress is generated.
• Work Production: Here the alloy is allowed to recover, but to do so it must act against a force (thus doing work).
• Superelasticity: As discussed above, here the nitinol acts as a super spring.

In 1989 a survey was conducted in the United States and Canada that involved seven organizations. The survey focused on predicting the future technology, market, and applications of SMA's. The companies predicted the following uses of nitinol in a decreasing order of importance: (1) Couplings, (2) Biomedical and medical, (3) Toys, demonstration, novelty items, (4) Actuators, (5) Heat Engines, (6) Sensors, (7) Cryogenically activated die and bubble memory sockets, and finally (8) lifting devices.
