Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) Engine / Combined Heat and Power (CHP) System

What we done:
1. test the SMA engine.
2. took an infrafed image and movie.

To do list:
1. Check Solidworks installer,
2. Prepare the poster

-Folding for shipping to reduce assembly
-Suspension coil system
-Heating sma in certain areas to follow a pipe with many bends (like an endoscope)

-Scan table of contents in book and then appropriate chapters (upload to open lab)
-learn about Dr. Johnson sma engine (make a video and upload to open lab through you tube)
-Check how much wire we have(lengths and diameters)
