Shape-memory polymers (SMPs) can be deformed and fixed in defined temporary shapes,
which significantly differ from their original shape and remain unchanged until exposed to …

Thermoset polymers are widely used in the civil engineering field, especially as adhesives,
coatings, and matrices for composite materials. During the in-situ application of these …

Shape-memory polymers are materials that are capable of changing their shape when an
external stimulus is applied. This effect is called the shape-memory effect (SME) and takes …

Reconfigurable structures such as morphing aircraft are multidisciplinary systems that
require efficient integration of actuation, mechanisms, and structures to achieve the desired …

With the increasing amount and diversity of electric products and the need for recycling and
