Shape memory hybrids : mechanism and design for tailored properties

The concept of shape memory hybrid (SMH) is proposed. The underlying mechanism and performance are investigated. The flexibility and versatile in design and fabrication of SMHs with tailored properties are demonstrated in a silicone based system. All types of shape memory phenomena, namely dual-shap...
