Data report of performance of SMA-based BRM actuators from literature: (A) shows the relationship between the elements dimension and bi-directional motion range of actuators. Colors corresponds to actuator types. Surrounding colors show the boundaries of existing prototypes: For given angle, L-SMA require larger values in terms of SMA lengths; according to the same diameter/thickness of SMAs, T-SMAs offer larger angles than B-SMAs. Publishing-time according to the presented works is provided on the (B).
