Primary Nitinol Stenting for Femoropopliteal Disease
Journal of Endovascular Therapy, 2009 The 1- to 2-year primary patency rates associated with self-expanding nitinol stents for the treatment of symptomatic femoropopliteal disease are superior to those for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and the first-generation stainless steel balloon-expandable stents.

Designing and simulating a nitinol-based micro ejector
Ingeniería e Investigación, 2012 This paper describes pico-droplet ejector design and simulation. The actuation system was based on two interconnected nitinol membranes’ shape memory effect. Ejected volume was 12pL and it operated at 30°C to 64°C. Ejecting excitation voltage was 12V and

Development of shape memory metal as the actuator of a fail safe mechanism [PDF]
A small, compact, lightweight device was developed using shape memory alloy (SMA) in wire form to actuate a pin-puller that decouples the flanges of two shafts. When the SMA is heated it contracts producing a useful force and stroke.
