ICE PROTECTION SYSTEM HAVING MEMORY-BASED ICE REMOVAL ELEMENTS
20250108927 · 2025-04-03 ·

A protection system including a removal element having shape-memory characteristics. The shape-memory characteristics have been configured to define a first shape of the removal element and a second shape of the removal element. When the removal element is in the first shape, the removal element is in a first position with respect to a to-be-protected (TBP) region of a structure. When the removal element is in the second shape, the removal element is in a second position with respect to the TBP region of the structure. The removal element is responsive to an activation that prompts the removal element to, under influence of the shape-memory characteristics, take on the second shape.
