Abstract:Aerospace applications place high demands on designing Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators, including accuracy, dependability, high-performance criteria, and cooperative activation. Because of their portability, durability, and performance under extreme conditions, SMAs have found a home in the aerospace industry as single and array actuators. This paper presents the development of a control scheme for thermally activating rotary SMA actuators as single and cooperative actuators. The control scheme is a hybrid … Show more
