Compliant Modular Shape Memory Alloy Actuators

Compliant Modular Shape Memory Alloy Actuators

We have presented a simple but effective method to design flexible actuators. This process relies on understanding the behavior of a simple unit cell element built out of SMA sheet. The unit cell effectively uses the properties of flat SMA sheets: it operates in the bent region where more force is g...
