A concise review of the applications of NiTi shape-memory alloys in composite materials
South African Journal of Science, 2014 Composite materials have increasingly been used in construction and in the aerospace and automotive industries because they are lightweight, strong and corrosion resistant, and because their anisotropic properties can be controlled; maintenance costs are

, 2010 Term "asymmetrical pseudoelasticity" refers to the theory, in which a symmetrical stress tensor and a symmetrical strain tensor are connected by means of an asymmetrical material tensor. An 6-dimensional asymmetrical matrix of elasticity has been constructed that is invariable in relation to orthogonal transformation with a single rotation operator and

Structural transitions in a NiTi alloy: a multistage loading-unload cycle
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2013 NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) are increasingly used in many engineering and medical applications, because they combine special functional properties, such as shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity, with good mechanical strength and biocompatibility ...

On the use of the Bingham statistical distribution in microsphere-based constitutive models for arterial tissue [PDF]
, 2010 Constitutive models for arterial tissue have been an active research field during the last years. The main micro-constituents of blood vessels are different types of cells and the extra-cellular matrix formed by an isotropic high water content ground ...

Pseudoelastic Deformation of CuAlMn Single Crystals [PDF]
Le Journal de Physique IV, 1995 Martensitic transformation associated with a tensile deformation of CuAlMn single crystals in [100] direction was studied using in-situ transmission electron microscopy. Stress/strain curves obtained during pseudoelastic deformation of microscopic samples were slightly different from bulk ones due to martensite formation in the stage of stress increase

On the elastic energy invariance of crystal twins
Archives of Mechanics, 2010 An analysis by Zanzotto (1992, 1996) showed that, if crystal twinning is considered as a material symmetry operation, the symmetry groups of many crystals that form twins correspond to the unimodular group, which is the symmetry group of elastic fluids ...

The Effects of Geometric Parameters Under Small and Large Deformations on Dissipative Performance of Shape Memory Alloy Helical Springs [PDF]
Journal of Stress Analysis, 2018 This paper presents an investigation into shape memory alloy (SMA) springs considering the effects of geometry changes under small as well as large deformations. Helical springs were fabricated by shape setting of NiTi wires through heat treatment.

Phase transformation yield surface of anisotropic shape memory alloys [PDF]
, 2005 International audienceTwo theoretical investigations, i.e. a phenomenological macroscopic model and a "micro-macro" model are developed for modelling the experimental surfaces of initiation of phase transformation in shape memory alloys.
