Journal ArticleDOI
4D printing and collaborative design of highly flexible shape memory alloy structures: a case study for a metallic robot prototype
Journal ArticleDOI
A shape memory alloy–actuated soft crawling robot based on adaptive differential friction and enhanced antagonistic configuration:
TL;DR: A soft crawling robot prototype with a simple architecture inspired by inchworms is presented, which functionally integrates the torso (body) and feet in a monolithic curved structure that only needs a single shape memory alloy coil and differential friction to actuate it.
A flexible carbon fibre-based electrothermal film for fast actuation of shape memory alloy sheets
TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a solution to heat SMA sheets using carbon fibres as surface heat sources and indirectly transmits Joule heat generated by the carbon fiber to the SMA sheet.
Journal ArticleDOI
A flexible and smart shape memory alloy composite sheet based on efficient and bidirectional thermal management
TL;DR: In this paper , a structural and functional integrity composite sheet was proposed to address the inefficient and bulky activation of 2D shape memory alloys (SMAs) and flexible thermoelectric devices (f-TEDs).
