Abstract
A shaped part made of a composite material having shape memory properties is intended to be assembled in such a way that various changes in shape, including complex changes, take place in dependence on the temperature. This is achieved by providing that the shaped part has several sections which have shape memory properties and which are coupled together with one another in such a way that independent results of the shape memory effect cause temperature-specific changes in the shape of the shaped part, in the course of which the shaped part assumes the same number of permanent and/or reversible shapes as the number of sections having shape memory properties.
