Abstract

A system for releasing a blowout panel and softcover release of an evacuation slide in an aircraft is provided. The system includes a first actuator, a second actuator; and a controller. The controller is configured to receive an indication that an evacuation event has begun; and, responsive to receiving the indication of the evacuation event beginning: send a first signal to the first actuator that magnetizes a first magnetostriction material within the first actuator, thereby releasing the blowout panel of a packboard compartment in which the evacuation slide is present; and send a second signal to the second actuator that magnetizes a second magnetostriction material within the second actuator, thereby releasing a key-loop of lacing associated with the softcover in which the evacuation slide is present in the packboard compartment.
