商品簡介
Seventy-nine proceedings papers from the December 1996 symposium presenting research in the use of ferroelectrics, magnetrostrictors, and shape-memory materials in smart systems. The contributors develop several new themes during the course of their presentations, including the manipulation of multiple phase transformations to develop highly active ferroelectic actuator materials, new research focusing on bulk Terfenol-D (a high-magnetostriction room temperature material) and its use in high-power transducers and actuators, and new trends in shape-memory alloys involving composites consisting of SMA-polymer, SMA-Tic or SMA-metal. Includes illustrations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
