Atomistic model explains how memory metals can change their shape
Shape memory alloys are exotic materials that can be deformed at room temperature and return to their "remembered," ...
In contrast to conventional electromagnetic coil-based motors and solenoids, the DM-01 actuator from MIGA Motor Co uses shape-memory alloy for its prime mover. Suitable for applications such as ...
NASA engineers have added a new twist to a cutting edge aerospace technology by demonstrating how a new Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuator can fold a 300-lb (136 kg) wing section from an F/A-18 Hornet ...
Abstract: The return of commercial supersonic flight requires innovative solutions to be developed that meet noise and efficiency requirements for overland flight. To study such a possibility NASA is ...
Cambridge Mechatronics has created a shape memory alloy actuator for cameras that combines auto-focus and optical image stabilisation (AF+OIS) in the same structure. Designed to move the lens above an ...
