Challenges for practical applications of shape memory alloy actuators
Shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators present opportunities for the development of novel actuating systems. High force-to-weight ratio, silent operation, muscle-like motion, biocompatibility, and simple design possibilities have attracted researchers to SMA actuators. Many SMA actuated systems in engin...
