The Journal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January/December 2026.This experimental study investigates the combined use of RCAs and SMA fibres to enhance concrete's sustainability and mechanical properties. Results showed that adding SMA to RCA mixtures increased compressive, splitting tensile and flexural strengths, while the SMA's shape memory effect (SME) contributed to a closer restoration of the initial strength

Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality
Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 51, December 23, 2025.Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

Pseudoelasticity in Fe3Ga with boron-A combined atomistic-micromechanical treatment [PDF]
, 2015 The Fe3Ga base alloy is known to exhibit pseudoelasticity and the solute hardened Fe3GaB holds considerable promise as well. The present work aims at developing a theoretical model to establish the critical twinning stress in Fe3Ga with varying boron ...

Micromechanical Insights into Sinter‐Based Additively Manufactured NiTi with Nb as a Sintering Aid
Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 21, November 2025.This study investigates the microstructural and micromechanical behavior of NiTiNb made through filament‐based materials extrusion via chemically correlated nanoindentation. B19' remnants from the original powder lead to Nb gradients within NiTiNb grains due to the short sintering times required in liquid‐phase sintering.

Structural Changes Associated with the Pseudoelastic Response of Fe-Based Shape Memory Alloys
The Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati. Fascicle IX, Metallurgy and Materials Science, 2014 The pseudoelastic responses of two types of iron base shape memory alloys (SMAs) were introduced and discussed. The former was based on Fe-Mn-Si system, obtained by classical (CM) and by powder metallurgy (PM) manufacturing. The latter was based on Fe-Ni-

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 45, November 13, 2025.An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.
