Summary/Abstract

The goal of the project is to develop adaptive SMA-surfaces in analogy to the human skin, based on micro-structured Ni-Ti-X thin films. Bistable SMA-thin film actuators and free-standing micro-structured SMA thin films will be used as substructures in order to fabricate the programmable and switchable surfaces. A model system will be fabricated by assembling the substructures onto a supporting matrix.
