Magnetic Shape Memory Actuators for Fluidic Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Magnetic Shape Memory (MSM) actuators represent a new type of smart electromagnetic actuators where the MSM material elongates and contracts in a magnetic field. The MSM material has the ability to change its size or shape very fast and many million times repeatedly. Based on internally designed and produced Magnetic Shape Memory materials, the ETO GROUP has developed its new MAGNETOSHAPE® technology that offers mono-, bi-, and multistable actuator solutions that have potential to serve various fluidic applications, from pneumatics to hydraulics, stationary or mobile. In this paper, we present an overview of the current state of the MAGNETOSHAPE® technology and its future impact on fluidic applications.

Experimental Hysteresis Identification and Micro-position Control of a Shape-Memory-Alloy Rod Actuator
In order to exhaustively exploit the high-level capabilities of shape memory alloys (SMAs), they must be applied in control systems applications. However, because of their hysteretic inherent, dilatory response, and nonlinear behavior, scientists are thwarted in their attempt to design controllers for actuators of such kind. The current study aims at developing a micro-position control system ...
