State of the Art of Shape Memory Materials and their Applications

Abstract:

The shape memory effect is associated to the recovering of a previous memorized shape due to an external action, generally a thermic triggering. In this work, we show the state of the art of shape memory materials and their applications especially as actuators and integrated in more complex machines.
