Frequency Control of Beams and Cylindrical Shells With Light Activated Shape Memory Polymers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Light activated shape memory polymer (LaSMP) is a novel smart material. It realizes the shape memory function under the exposure of laser lights with two different wavelengths. During the exposure process, the stiffness ...
Flexoelectric Actuation and Vibration Control of Ring Shells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The converse flexoelectric effect, i.e., the polarization (or electric field) gradient-induced internal stress (or strain), can be utilized to actuate and control flexible structures. This study focuses on the microscopic ...
