Processing of Porous NITI Preforms for NITI/MG Composites

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2019
NiTi alloys are successfully used in engineering and medical applications because of their properties, such as shape memory effect, superelasticity or mechanical strength. A composite with Mg matrix, due to its vibration damping properties, can be characterized by low weight and good vibration damping properties.

Phase composition in NiTi near-surface layers after electron beam treatment and its variation depending on beam energy density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the work, we study the mechanisms of structural phase state formation in NiTi surface layers after low-energy pulsed electron beam irradiation depending on the electron beam energy density. It is revealed that after electron beam treatment of the NiTi
