Shape‐Memory Alloy Torsion Strips for Soft Robotic Manipulation and Morphing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
In this research, a dedicated configuration of SMA strip is proposed for soft robotic manipulation and morphing. This configuration has broad application prospects and demonstrates remarkable advantages in soft body joint operations. Mimicking invertebrates, soft robots tend to control each of their body joints to achieve the desired shape changes and ...

Phase transformation and deformation behavior of NiTi-Nb eutectic joined NiTi wires [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractNiTi wires were brazed together via eutectic reaction between NiTi and Nb powder deposited at the wire contact region. Phase transformation and deformation behavior of the NiTi-Nb eutectic microstructure were investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cyclic loading-unloading tests.
