Shape Memory Effect Driven by Diffusionless and Diffusional Transformations at Elevated Temperatures

Успехи физики металлов, 2002
Several alloy systems can be selected for high-temperature shape-memory alloys, defined as alloys with stable reverse martensitic-transformation temperatures above 100°C.

Twin-based martensite stabilizing and improving the shape memory response of near equiatomic NiTi alloy through multi-axial forging

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
In the present study, a high cumulative true strain (∼4.5) was applied on a near equiatomic NiTi shape memory alloy through multi-axial forging in the course of “isothermal” and “continuous cooling” regimes.

Hot deformation behavior of Ni50.4Ti34.6Hf15 high-temperature shape memory alloy

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
Due to their extreme requirements, conventional Ni–Ti shape memory alloys (SMAs) are no longer suitable for aerospace applications. Adding Hf to Ni–Ti SMAs can significantly enhance their suitability for aerospace applications, particularly in high ...

Recycling of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys: Fundamental and Technological Aspects of a Vacuum Induction Melting Processing Route

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.

Ti-Ta High Temperature Shape Memory Alloys

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
The actuation based on shape memory alloys relies on the martensitic phase transformation that allows the reversible transition from the "soft" martensite phase to the "hard" austenite phase. Usual shape memory alloys usually have transformation temperatures around room temperature.

Energy-Minimizing Microstructures in Multiphase Elastic Solids [PDF]

, 2004
This thesis concerns problems of microstructure and its macroscopic consequences in multiphase elastic solids, both single crystals and polycrystals. The elastic energy of a two-phase solid is a function of its microstructure.

Soft Mechanical‐Electrical Logic Using Liquid Metal‐Filled 3D‐Printed Architectures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present 3D‐printed soft mechanical–electrical logic elements that use liquid metal–filled silicone tubes actuated by thermoplastic polyurethane/polylactic acid (TPU/PLA) architectures to produce Boolean operations. Complementary normally open and normally closed unit cells perform repeatable binary transitions and can be combined into more complex ...

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Shape Memory Polymers: From Bead–Spring Models to Atomistic Simulations

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...
