Design and analysis of a rotating device actuated by shape memory alloy for recovering useful energy from a waste heat source

The discovery of shape memory effect in materials has enabled the direct conversion of low-grade thermal energy of less than 100°C to mechanical energy. There have been a number of researches on the use shape memory alloys (SMAs) for rotational actuation; however, very few of these researches provid...
