Hoist-Based Shape Memory Alloy Actuator with Multiple Wires for High-Displacement Applications
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are smart materials that change their crystalline structures when subjected to heat or tension, resulting in a macroscopic deformation. When applied to actuators, SMAs present a remarkable load–weight ratio and flexibility, making them suitable for diverse applications. Ho...
