Non-Conventional Deformations: Materials and Actuation

This paper reviews materials and structures displaying non-conventional deformations as a response to different actuations (e.g., electricity, heat and mechanical loading). Due to the various kinds of actuation and targeted irregular deformation modes, the approaches in the literature show great div...

description This paper reviews materials and structures displaying non-conventional deformations as a response to different actuations (e.g., electricity, heat and mechanical loading). Due to the various kinds of actuation and targeted irregular deformation modes, the approaches in the literature show great diversity. Methods are systematized and tabulated based on the nature of actuation. Electrically and mechanically actuated shape changing concepts are discussed individually for their significance, while systems actuated by heat, pressure, light and chemicals are condensed in a shared section presenting examples and main research trends. Besides scientific research results, this paper features examples of real-world applicability of shape changing materials, highlighting their industrial value.
