Combination of high-resolution cone beam computed tomography and metal artefact reduction software: a new image fusion technique for evaluating intracranial stent apposition after aneurysm treatment. [PDF]
We introduce a new imaging technique to improve visualisation of stent apposition after endovascular treatment of brain aneurysms employing high-resolution cone beam CT and three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography.

Primary Nitinol Stenting for Femoropopliteal Disease
The 1- to 2-year primary patency rates associated with self-expanding nitinol stents for the treatment of symptomatic femoropopliteal disease are superior to those for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and the first-generation stainless steel balloon-expandable stents.

The alloy with a memory, 55-Nitinol: Its physical metallurgy, properties, and applications [PDF]
A series of nickel titanium alloys (55-Nitinol), which are unique in that they possess a shape memory, are described. Components made of these materials that are altered in their shapes by deformation under proper conditions return to predetermined ...

Designing and simulating a nitinol-based micro ejector
This paper describes pico-droplet ejector design and simulation. The actuation system was based on two interconnected nitinol membranes’ shape memory effect. Ejected volume was 12pL and it operated at 30°C to 64°C. Ejecting excitation voltage was 12V and

Development of shape memory metal as the actuator of a fail safe mechanism [PDF]
A small, compact, lightweight device was developed using shape memory alloy (SMA) in wire form to actuate a pin-puller that decouples the flanges of two shafts. When the SMA is heated it contracts producing a useful force and stroke.

Hardness and Microstructure of Binary and Ternary Nitinol Compounds [PDF]
The hardness and microstructure of twenty-six binary and ternary Nitinol compounds (Ni-Ti, Ni-Ti- Ta, Ni-Ti-Hf, and Ni-Ti-Zr) were studied. A small (50g) button of each compound was produced by vacuum arc melting (VAM).
