Simulation of Shape Memory Alloy (SMA)-Bias Spring Actuation for Self-Shaping Architecture: Investigation of Parametric Sensitivity

Parametric complexity of the thermomechanical shape memory alloy (SMA) model is one of the major barriers to advanced application of the SMA actuation in adaptive architecture. This article seeks to provide architectural practitioners with decision-making information about SMA actuator design parame...
