Design methodology of the Ni50Ti50 shape memory alloy beam actuator: Heat treatment, training and numerical simulation

Shape memory alloy (SMA) beam actuators are widely used in morphing structures, which leads to a surgent demand for a comprehensive design method. Previous methods have not considered the heat treatment and the evolution of actuation performance during training. In this study, an in-depth investigat...
