First the modeling on the atomistic level is reviewed and a numerical simulation of a Ni64Al36 alloy is presented. Then the upscaling to an intermediate continuum mechanical model is performed by means of the inner expansion technique. This model is further approximated to extract the essential properties. The resulting continuum mechanical model is finally used for the numerical simulation of a SMA-based two-way micro-actuator.}, annote = {series,C4,multi} }
