In this study, we discuss the dynamics of a type of hanging truss structural system consisting of rigid and wire members, part of which are SMA (shape memory alloy) wires. This kind of truss structure has the capability of vibration isolation and absorption. Characteristics of zero compressive stiffness of wire members, SMA wire members and hanging configuration of the structure itself contribute to the effect of vibration isolation. The hysteretic loop of SMA wires plays a significant role in vibration attenuation. Mathematical models for this kind of dynamic problem are developed. Calculation process is introduced to take into account the mechanical characteristics of SMA and wire members. Dynamic characteristics are discussed; simultaneously, the effects of vibration isolation and attenuation have been confirmed. On the basis of the numerical calculations, advantages of combinations of various types of wire members, including the truss units having no bracing wires have been demonstrated.

Temperature characteristics are essential to reasonable application of Ni-Mn-Ga alloy. This paper reports an experiment equipment which is used as the research of variable temperature effect. The relationship between deformation rate and temperature is studied. Dynamic and static experiments are done. The results show that critical temperature is around 40°C. It can be predicted that thermo-elasticity and magnetically-controlled characteristics will disappear with the increase of temperature.

With shape memory function of new smart material, the magnetic control properties of magnetic shape memory alloy could be used to fabricate intelligent actuators for vibration control of structures. In order to study its magnetic properties, this text selected Ni53Mn25Ga22 as the material for the research and development of actuator drive, And two MSMA test specimens were prepared for the experimental study under the coupled action of the temperature, preload pressure and magnetic field. The results showed that the strain of MSMA induced by magnetic field decreased with the increase of the preload pressure at constant magnetic field. The deformation performance was best when the magnetic induction intensity was about 0.5T. And the constitutive relations were fitted for the actuator production to lay the foundation for later.
