In the previous study, micromechanical modeling of the intelligent material containing TiNi fibers was performed and the stress intensity factor K_1 could be expressed in terms of the magnitude of shape memory shrinkage of fibers and the thermal expansion strain occurred in the material. In this study, by using the analytical results, the value of K_1 will be numerically calculated. As a result, we can see that the K_1 value decreases with increasing in the shrink strain of fibers. This tendency agree with that of the experimental result obtained by Shimamoto et al. Moreover, it can be seen that there exists the optimal value of shrink strain of fibers to make the K_1 value zero. The change in K_1 with temperature during heating process to the inverse austenitic temperature of TiNi fiber is also consistent with the experimental result. The results obtained can be explained by the shrink strain, the thermal expansion strain, and the elastic moduli of TiNi fiber. These results may be useful in designing the intelligent material containing TiNi fibers from the viewpoint of crack closure.
