Usage of shape memory alloy actuators for large force active disassembly applications

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) possess inherent superior properties that make their applications in active disassembly an emerging and interesting field of research. This is because extremely large forces can be generated repeatedly using a small compact-sized element, such as an SMA actuator. To ensure...
