Engineers at Caltech have developed a process for generating three-dimensional architected polymers with heat-dependent “shape memory” properties: that is, when heated, the material folds and unfolds itself into a new preordained shape. In this video, Caltech graduate student Luizetta Elliott explains how these shape memory polymers could one day be used to perform complex tasks […]
