## Abstract The largest cause of mortality in the Western world is atherosclerotic vascular disease. Many of these diseases require synthetic vascular grafts; however, their patency rate is only 30% in small (<6 mm) diameter vascular grafts after 5 years of implantation. In an effort to increase sm
This paper presents a new technique of actuating a parallel platform manipulator using shape memory alloy (SMA). This is a type of smart materials that can attain a high strength-to-weight ratio, which makes them ideal for miniature application. The work is mainly to develop a new SMA actuator and t
