Title:
THERMAL TRANSITION METHODS AND DEVICES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006017714
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A method of sequentially transitioning a thermally active shape memory device progressively translocates the thermally active shape memory device through a first controlled temperature zone and through an additional controlled temperature zone. The thermally active shape memory device is thermally transitioned and changed in geometric shape as a result of thermal communication of the shape memory device with either or both of the controlled temperature zones to produce a transitioned thermally active shape memory device. Novel devices produced according to the method are also disclosed.
