Movies S1 and S2

Movie s1
A knot tightens up upon heating. Hot air is blown onto the fiber.

Movie s2
A fiber is connected by both ends to an electrical power supply. The thin fiber can be hardly seen but a metallic bar is attached on the left side. A shape memory effect is triggered by Joule’s heating. The sudden fiber shrinkage at the end of the movie occurs at high temperature. This is reflected by the fast motion of the metallic bar to from the left to the right.
