Not a whole lot, but the whole paper goes into the various factors
involved.  Ultimately, it winds up that the mismatch from SMAs is
a) a whole lot less than the usual "worst case" spec of 1.05:1 or 1.03:1
(which is basically a measurement limit)
and
b) doesn't change much with many mate/demate cycles

He did look at things like coupling nut friction and what not.

Do you have the name of the paper? It might be interesting to read.

I'll try to find it.  I've got the pdf "somewhere" on my computer..
