We therefore propose a novel approach to fabricate thin film SMA-Polyimide sandwich-structured composite to realize the improvement in actuation frequency along with the actuation force to boost the load carrying capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Funding agency: SERB &#8211; DST<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Total project cost: \u20b9 34,14,517 \/-<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Duration: 3 years<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Date of sanction letter: 03 January 2022<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Principal Investigator: Dr. Ravindra V.
