Shape Memory Alloy is a material used to designing actuators. These actuators have many advantages. They are light, strong and silent. They are building in laboratory and tested because beside advantages they have disadvantages too. SMA actuators have nonlinear characteristics with hysteresis loop.In the first part of the paper Shape Memory Alloys are shortly described. Next mathematical model was formulated. In the paper the Preisach model was developed. Discrete form of the model was considered and implemented. After parameter identification model was implemented in LabView. Tests of the model were conducted and results were worked. Obtained characteristics of the SMA actuator are shown in the paper. At the end of the paper the conclusions were formulated.

Shape memory alloys are among the highly applicable smart materials that have recently appealed to scientists from various fields of study. In this article, a novel shape memory alloy actuator, in the form of a rod, is introduced, and an adaptive model predictive control system is designed for position control of the developed actuator. The need for such an advanced control system emanates from the fact that modeling and controlling of shape memory alloy actuators are thwarted by their hysteresis nonlinearity, dilatory response, and high dependence on environmental conditions. Real-time identification and dynamic parameter estimation of the model are addressed according to orthogonal Laguerre functions and recursive least square algorithm. In the end, the designed control system is implemented on the experimental setup of the fabricated shape memory alloy actuator. It is observed that the designed control system successfully tracks the variable step and sinusoidal control references with startling accuracy of ±1 μm.
