The Shape Memory Alloy Research Team (SMART) consists of faculty, research staff and students, whose main interest is in developing experimentally verifiable constitutive models for Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) together with design capabilities of active or “smart” structures that utilize SMAs for shape and actuation control applications. This research effort initiated at Texas A&M University in 1992 and has been supported by various funding agencies such as National Science Foundation, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Air Force Office of Scientific Research, and the State of Texas.
