We report the first measurements of a self-healing polymer that combines a microencapsulated liquid healing agent and shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. When a propagating crack ruptures the embedded microcapsules, the liquid healing agent is automatically re ...
Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloys are often used in medical component devices, for instance as guide wires for neurological surgery applications. Manufacturing of such devices becomes more and more challenging, especially considering the need to j ...
We present the development of a low-temperature liquid composite moulding cure schedule that is compatible with the fabrication of shape memory alloy (SMA)–epoxy composite materials. With this process, the SMA wires do not need to be maintained in place wi ...

This thesis describes the development of a smart carbon fibre polymer composite that is capable of sensing its own damage and self-healing. Structural composites are used in the aerospace and marine industries, for example. During their lifetime impact eve ...
The feasibility of using a low temperature liquid composite molding technique to produce smart composites with embedded shape memory alloys was investigated. The epoxy system of EPON 828 resin and DETA hardener was evaluated, with embedded NiTiCu shape mem ...
One important challenge of microsystems design is the implementation of miniaturized actuation principles efficient at the micro-scale. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have early on been considered as a potential solution to this problem as these materials offe ...

We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. The addition of SMA wires shows improvements of healed peak fracture loads by up to a factor of 1.6, approaching the performance of the virgin material. ...
Important advancements have been recently achieved in the field of neural interfaces to restore lost sensory and motor functions. The aim of this letter was to develop an innovative approach to increase the selectivity and the lifetime of polyimide-based i ...
