SMA are the materials of the future. Know since 1930s, only now we are starting to being able to use it with success. They are materials that change form, due to the application of a determined temperature, electricity or magnetic power. They will allow to save weight, energy and to allow us new ways of flying. The way we are going to fly, will be similar to a birds flight.
Bellow I posted a Dassault Aviation study and a Boeing test using SMA's.
I also posted some youtube videos.
Enjoy!
