A shape-memory alloy (SMA, smart metal, memory metal, memory alloy, muscle wire, smart alloy) is an alloy that "remembers" its original shape and that when deformed returns to its pre-deformed shape when heated. This material is a lightweight, solid-state alternative to conventional actuators such as hydraulic, pneumatic and motor-based systems. Shape-memory alloys have applications in robotics and automotive, aerospace and bio medical industries. Shape Memory Effect is the unique ability of materials to be severely deformed and then return to their original shape through stimulus which is possessed by the shape memory alloys and hence they are called so. There are many application of shape memory alloys in Bio engineering.

Smart gels contain fluids (usually water) in a matrix of large, complex polymers. These polymers are special in that they respond to stimuli in an advanced way. Types of stimuli that affect smart gels are physical and chemical factors. Applications of smart gels permeate into many various fields including both medical and industrial. While smart gels are in their infancy in the medical field, there is great promise for the technology. Self-healing hydrogels are a specialized type of polymer Hydrogels. A hydrogel is a macro-molecular polymer gel constructed of a network of cross-linked polymer chains. Self-healing refers to the spontaneous formation of new bonds when old bonds are broken within a material. These flesh-like properties have motivated the research and development of self-healing hydrogels in fields such as reconstructive Tissue engineering as scaffolding, as well as use in passive and preventive applications.

Summary
Smart Materials can be studied under the branch of Materials Science and Technology which is a field of technology that deals with the study of different materials and the way they respond to external stimuli, we are mostly dependent upon and limited by materials. Everything we use is made of some kind of materials: aeroplanes, computers, refrigerators, microwave ovens, athletic equipment of all types and even biomedical devices such as replacement joints and limbs. Smart Materials and Structures are hybrid materials and structures that are composed of dissimilar phases which significantly change if any external stimulus is applied such as temperature, stress, magnetic or electric fields. Smart Materials can also be the combinations of at least two different materials, Exciting new product developments frequently are possible only through new materials and or processing. Such Materials are called Emerging Materials. The future will bring many Emerging Materials.

The market of Smart Materials
Smart Materials Market is expected to reach $72.63 billion by 2022, registering a CAGR of 14.9% during the forecast period 2016-2022. Smart materials are adaptive or intelligent materials which pose intrinsic and extrinsic capabilities. These can be altered by external stimuli, such as moisture, temperature, electromagnetic field, and pressure to obtain the desired functional effects. In addition, these materials are dynamic in nature and respond to their immediate interaction environments by adapting their characteristics. Advancements in the materials science sector resulted in the development of materials for specific applications, which was previously not possible with the use of conventional materials, such as polymers/plastics, metals, glass, and ceramics. Smart materials are capable of working at a very basic functional level, such as temperature and can be used in very complex technical systems by incorporating additional functionalities and properties. For instance, smart materials can be used in energy supply systems for microelectronic components.
