ANALYSIS OF SMA (SHAPE MEMORY ALLOYS) AS A FEASIBLE TENDON MATERIAL FOR INFUSED BIONIC ARM

The bionic arm has the history of the wood and metal materials to smart material. When the bionic arm started to use in the real it’s very helpful to the people to handle the things in their life, when it comes to pervious technology to present technology the arm has undergone many changes like shape and this project is aimed at the main consideration of the reducing weight of the arm and accurate controlling. Bionic arm which is developing from the servo motors to smart material which gives the benefits of using it for the life cycles which doesn’t get damage of materials. By using smart material also reduces the weight of the arm. In this project aims to the analysis of the tendon material and heat effect on the Cladder. This bionic arm as the measurement consideration of the anthropometric of a human arm on basis of age and gender. Using the anthropometric for Ansys to get accurate results for the prosthetic bionic arm. This improves the efficiency of the bionic arm. In this project aimed to do “analysis of SMA (shape memory Alloys) as a feasible tendon material for infused bionic arm”. When use the smart materials it produces the heat which will be identified by analysis of transient and fatigue to ensure that heat produced by SMA should with-stand by the material.
