Case Studies in the Preliminary Design of SMA Actuators

Abstract: In spite of the rather complex and hysteretic behavior of SMA components (wires and springs), and the complex changes that occur in their microstructures, the preliminary design of SMA wires and springs turns out to be reasonably simple provided we utilize their shape memory characteristics in specific ways. Designing SMA actuators requires defining actuation intervals (temperature profile), load levels and/or displacement outputs over its intended designed life. The alloy composition dictates the transformati… Show more

“…Such an inconvenient can perhaps be avoided or at least delayed by using a liquid immersion cooling system, e.g. by placing the spring in a tube with a conducting fluid (Rao et al 2015) or by using hollow spring as proposed by and . However, SE behavior at the end of seismic loading may also be advantageous for exploiting the self-centering property of the dissipating device.…”
