Frequency Response of Acoustic-Assisted Ni–Mn–Ga Ferromagnetic- Shape-Memory-Alloy Actuator
A prototype of Ni–Mn–Ga based ferromagnetic-shape-memory-alloy (FSMA) actuator was designed and built; an acoustic-assist technique was applied to the actuator to enhance its performance. A piezoelectric stack actuator was attached to the Ni–Mn–Ga sample to generate acoustic energy to enhance twin-b...
