Thermally actuated shape-memory polymers: Experiments, theory, and numerical simulations
With the aim of developing a thermo-mechanically-coupled large-deformation constitutive theory and a numerical-simulation capability for modeling the response of thermally-actuated shape-memory polymers, we have (i) conducted large strain compression experiments on a representative shape-memory polymer to strains of approximately unity at strain rates of 10 s and 10 s, and at temperatures rangi...
متن کاملReconfigurable photonic crystals enabled by pressure-responsive shape-memory polymers
Smart shape-memory polymers can memorize and recover their permanent shape in response to an external stimulus (for example, heat). They have been extensively exploited for a wide spectrum of applications ranging from biomedical devices to aerospace morphing structures. However, most of the existing shape-memory polymers are thermoresponsive and their performance is hindered by heat-demanding p...
متن کاملFocused ultrasound actuation of shape memory polymers; acoustic-thermoelastic modeling and testing
Controlled drug delivery (CDD) technologies have received extensive attention recently. Despite recent efforts, drug releasing systems still face major challenges in practice, including low efficiency in releasing the pharmaceutical compounds at the targeted location with a controlled time rate. We present an experimentally-validated acoustic-thermoelastic mathematical framework for modeling th...
متن کاملShape-memory polymers.
Material scientists predict a prominent role in the future for self-repairing and intelligent materials. Throughout the last few years, this concept has found growing interest as a result of the rise of a new class of polymers. These so-called shape-memory polymers by far surpass well-known metallic shape-memory alloys in their shape-memory properties. As a consequence of the relatively easy ma...
متن کاملReview of progress in shape-memory polymers
Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) have attracted significant attention from both industrial and academic researchers due to their useful and fascinating functionality. This review thoroughly examines progress in shape-memory polymers, including the very recent past, achieved by numerous groups around the world and our own research group. Considering all of the shapememory polymers reviewed, we ident...
