A new model for the behavior of polycrystalline shape memory alloys (SMA), based on a statically constrained microplane theory, is proposed. The new model can predict three-dimensional response by superposing the e2ects of inelastic deformations computed on several planes of different orientation, thus reproducing closely the actual physical behavior of the material. Due to the structure of the...
This paper presents a two-part controller that uses a state variable estimator for control of a single degree of freedom rotary manipulator actuated by Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire. A model for the SMA actuated manipulator is presented. The model includes nonlinear dynamics of the manipulator, a constitutive model of the Shape Memory Alloy, and the electrical and heat transfer behavior of SMA ...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD), postmortem studies show different topographic involvement of the thalamus, basal ganglia, and their cortical connections. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an MR imaging technique sensitive to gray and white matter microstructure integrity. This study was performed to determine whether DTI may de...
To understand the contribution of the human pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) in sequential motor behavior, we performed a series of finger key-press experiments. Experiment 1 revealed that each subject had a spontaneous tendency to organize or “chunk” a long sequence into shorter components. We hypothesized that the pre-SMA might have a special role in initiating each chunk but not at oth...
2014 Temperature variations of heat capacity, optical tilt angle, polarization, and helical pitch have been measured in the vicinity of the smectic-A (SmA)-chiral-smectic-C (SmC*) transition of one liquid-crystal compound which exhibits an unusual reversal behavior in polarization at about 25 °C while the SmA-SmC* transition occurs at 50 °C. Unexpectedly, from our detailed calorimetric and opti...

Our goal in this review is to provide an anatomical framework for the analysis of the motor functions of the medial wall of the hemisphere in humans and laboratory primates. Converging evidence indicates that this region of the frontal lobe contains multiple areas involved in motor control. In the monkey, the medial wall contains four premotor areas that project directly to both the primary mot...
Shape memory alloy (SMA) wires can be embedded in a host material to alter the stiffness or modal response and provide vibration control. The interaction between the embedded SMA and the host material is critical to applications requiring transfer of loads or strain from the wire to the host. Although there has been a significant amount of research dedicated to characterizing and modeling the r...
This present paper will study the requirements for development of a new Automatic Rotor Blades Folding (ARBF) system that could possibly solve the availability, compatibility and complexity issue of upgrading a manual to a fully automatic rotor blades folding system of a helicopter. As a subject matter, the Royal Malaysian Navy Super Lynx Mk 100 was chosen as the baseline model. The aim of the ...
in the first part of this thesis we explored wetting and its dynamics for small droplets. first, we showed how a simple feature of water droplets on a surface, i.e. laplace pressure, can be exploited to build a micropump. we investigated capillary pumping in microchannels both experimentally and numerically. putting two droplets of different sizes at the in/outlet of a microchannel, will ge...
