A Novel Approach to Shape Memory Alloys Applied to Passive Adaptive Shading Systems

A shading device for façade application was developed by combining twisting cylindrical shading elements with the smart use of shape-memory alloy (SMA) components. These allow a dynamic behaviour of a shading device, which does not require electrical motors or manual activation, nor sophisticated e...
