Mechanical behaviors and biomedical applications of shape memory materials: A review
A shape memory material (shape memory alloy (SMA) or shape memory polymer (SMP)) can experience large deformation and recover its original shape when exposed to a specific external stimulus. Shape memory materials have drawn significant attention due to their applications in biomedical devices, whic...
