self-sensing

An experimental setup is developed in which shape memory alloy actuator is working againt a linear tension spring as a bias mechanism. The experimental data is collected via microcontroller-based embedded system for training and validation of a self-sensing approach for a shape memory alloy actuator. The provided dataset includes 'electrical power' in watt that is applied to actuate a spring-biased shape memory alloy actuator. measured 'electrical resistance' in ohm, resulting 'displacement' in mm and 'time' stamps in second.
