Safranski introduces the properties of shape-memory polymers and presents design principles for designing and manufacturing, providing a guide for the R\u0026amp;D engineer\/scientist and design engineer to add the shape memory effect of polymers into their design toolbox.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the first book to focus on applying basic science knowledge to design practical devices, introducing the concept of shape-memory polymers, the history of their use, and the range of current applications. It details the specific design principles for working with shape-memory polymers that don't often apply to mechanically inactive materials and products. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMaterial selection is thoroughly discussed because chemical structure and thermo-mechanical properties are intrinsically linked to shape-memory performance. Further chapters discuss programming the temporary shape and recovery through a variety of activation methods with real world examples. Finally, current devices across a variety of markets are highlighted to show the breadth of possible applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David L.
