  • Engineering materials with memory.

    T.E.I. of Crete, School of Engineering (STEF), Department of Mechanical Engineering
    Authors: Tasioulis, Vasileios
    Thesis advisor: Savvakis, Konstantinos
    Publication Date: 2016-10-17
    This study investigates the property of some materials to return to a former shape when subjected to an appropriate stimulus. Pseudoelastic and shape memory effects are some of the behaviors presented by this kind of ...
  • Use of piezoelectric materials in mechanical engineering.

    Η.Μ.U, School of Engineering (ScENG), Mechanical Engineering Dept
    Authors: Brillaki, Maria; Tzagkourni, Maria
    Thesis advisor: Moutsopoulou, Amalia
    Publication Date: 2023-09-21
    This thesis refers to piezoelectricity, smart materials and their applications. Specifically, the piezoelectric effect produces electric current when subjected to mechanical stress, this process is also reversible. ...
