Definition of Smart / Multifunctional
© Crown copyright 2012 Dstl
21 February 2013
DSTL/PUB70379 Cleared for public release
'Accepted' definition • A smart material is any material that can sense some
stimulus from its environment and react to it in a useful,
reliable, reproducible and usually reversible manner. A
really smart material will use its reaction to the external
stimulus to initiate or actuate an active response, e.g.
with an active control system.
21 February 2013
© Crown copyright 2012 Dstl
DSTL/PUB70379 Cleared for public release
Scope for this call
• Smart:
– A material that can provide a useful response to a stimulus,
of a form that is different to the stimulus itself (eg mechanical
stimulus providing a colour change)
• Multifunctional:
– A material or structure combine one or more types of
functionality (eg structural + electrical, protective + sensing
etc)

Structural power
• Aim:
– To integrate electrical power
storage (ultracapacitor) into a
structural carbon fibre
composite
• Rationale:
– Reducing the overall mass of
an unmanned air vehicle by
combining functionality

Morphing structures
• Aim:
– To replace conventional control
surfaces with internal systems
able to morph the leading or
trailing edge of a missile wing
• Rationale:
– Morphing the wing surface in this
way enables the missile to fly
straight and level, rather than at
an angle of attack; results in
increased range with no mass
penalty

Self-healing materials
• Aim:
– To demonstrate the principle of self-
healing from microspheres or
vascular networks
• Rationale:
– Composite materials may suffer from
barely-visible impact damage (BVID),
reducing the mechanical
performance and lifetime of the
structure; self-healing may help
reduce the risk of failure due to BVID

technologies
21 February 2013
© Crown copyright 2012 Dstl
• Aim:
– To evaluate the performance of single
crystal piezoelectrics and magnetic
shape memory alloys, and compare
these with traditional materials
• Rationale:
– Defence equipment uses many different types of actuator. New materials offer
the potential for reduced system mass
or volume, or could enable disruptive
technology due to a step-change in
performance. Credit: QinetiQ

Energy harvesting (2)
• Aim:
– Eliminate requirement for batteries (or
replacement of) in discrete low power
applications (eg wireless sensors
networks for military platforms)
• Rationale:
– Solution harvests energy from ambient energy sources on military platforms to
power low power devices and perform
useful tasks
– Harvesting efficiency offers capability
enhancement over batteries (or operation where batteries are inconvenient to
replace or their use is prohibited)

DSTL/PUB70379 Cleared for public release
Advanced manufacturing
• In the future, 3D printers will offer product developers
and manufacturers the ability to print parts and
assemblies made of several materials with different
mechanical and physical properties in a single build
process
– The interest here is not only in the bottom-up design and
fabrication of materials but whether emerging manufacturing
tools can be used to produce highly complex multifunctional
materials with new and unique capabilities
21 February 2013
© Crown copyright 2012 Dstl
DSTL/PUB70379 Cleared for public release
Modelling

is already covered within the MAST STC core programme
21 February 2013
© Crown copyright 2012 Dstl
DSTL/PUB70379 Cleared for public release
What we are NOT looking for
• Intelligent textiles where the predominant functionality is not
embedded into the textile
– eg achieved by packaging discrete devices into pockets or where
conducting yarns are woven into fabrics or where the proposal is
solely focused on delivering ICT backbone (infrastructure)
functionality
• Advanced manufacturing or modelling that is not focused on
smart or multifunctional materials
• Multifunctional materials that are not novel or are not integrated
into a novel design
