Design and Implementation of a Soft Robotic Arm Driven by SMA Coils

IEEE transactions on industrial electronics (1982. Print), 2019
Soft robots may potentially be used for human services and complex environmental locomotion. The bodies of the soft robots are made from soft materials to make them safe for human interactions and to enable them to deform enough to adapt to soft or rough

Fatigue of SMAs

2015
With growing applications of SMA components in different engineering applications, the issue of material performance over its designed life is of great concern to researchers lately. Fatigue studies in SMAs is still an unsolved puzzle and we wish to highlight some important items that affect the designers and some open questions in SMA fatigue areas.

Discrepancy in redetermination of SMN2 copy numbers in children with SMA

Neurology, 2019
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare autosomal recessive inherited neuromuscular disease with an incidence of about 1:6,000 to 1:10,000 in newborns. The clinical spectrum of severity is broad and ranges from early and severe weakness with respiratory ...

The SMAS and the Nasolabial Fold

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1992
In a series of histologic sections and clinical and cadaver dissections, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) is seen to become the investing fascia of the zygomaticus major and minor muscles in the medial cheek. The pull on the cheek flap during rhytidectomy is diffused by the attachment of the SMAS to these muscles.

Nutcracker and SMA syndromes: What is the normal SMA angle in children?

European Journal of Radiology, 2012
The nutcracker and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndromes are rare conditions where the left renal vein or duodenum may be compressed by an unusually acute angle between the SMA and aorta, although the normal angle in children is unknown. We measured the SMA angle to define the normal range in children.We retrospectively measured SMA angles, left ...

SMA Biomedical Applications

2015
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are a group of metallic materials that exhibit unique properties and, accordingly, draw the interest of scientific communities and industries. The most used SMA in the biomedical field is Nitinol (NiTi). Nowadays, a large majority of SMA medical devices are produced using NiTi alloys, thanks to the material's good workability

Micromechanical analysis of porous SMA

Smart Materials and Structures, 2015
The present paper deals with computational micromechanical analyses of porous shape memory alloy (SMA). Porous SMAs are considered composite materials made of a dense SMA matrix including voids. A three-dimensional constitutive law is presented for the dense SMA able to reproduce the pseudo-elastic as well as the shape memory effects and, moreover, to ...
