Using components made from smart shape-memory materials with slightly different responses to heat, researchers have demonstrated a four-dimensional printing technology that allowed creation... Read more
Shape memory alloys, or SMAs, possess the ability to return to their original shape after being severely deformed, either spontaneously or following the application of heat. This makes them... Read more
This discovery opens the door to applications in a wide range of fields, including medical, energy and electronics. Listen up nickel-titanium and all you other shape-memory alloys, there’s a... Read more
