TLDR
In this article, the feasibility of active vibration control using Nitinol shape memory actuators is discussed, and the experimental set-up and the range of parametric variation used in a beam vibration control are described.Abstract:
: Summarizes research progress in the feasibility demonstration of active vibration control using Nitinol shape memory actuators. Tests on straight wire and helical actuators to characterize their dynamic response are described. The experimental set-up and the range of parametric variation used in a beam vibration control are also described.read more
