Investigation of the energy conversion efficiency of shape memory alloys

This project investigated the energy conversion efficiency of one way shape memory alloys (SMA). Energy conversion works by converting low grade thermal energy to mechanical energy, hence providing alternative sources of energy, useful to mankind. SMA energy conversion is however limited by its effi...
