Martensite aging phenomena in Cu-based alloys: Effects on structural transformation, mechanical and shape memory properties: A critical review

open access: yesScientific African, 2021
Cu-based shape memory alloys have been hyped as the ‘heir’ and pragmatic substitute to NiTi alloys for shape memory applications. Considerations from relatively low materials cost, processing ease, and modest shape memory properties, have been advanced ...

Relationship between Chemical Composition and Ms Temperature in High-Entropy Shape Memory Alloys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceFive high entropy alloys with shape memory effect or superelastic effect were prepared by cold crucible melting to understand the effect of their chemical composition on the transformation temperatures. The microstructure and phases

Phase Transformation of Anisotropic Shape Memory Alloys: Theory and Validation in Superelasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the present study, a new transformation criterion that includes the effect of tension–compression asymmetry and texture-induced anisotropy is proposed and combined with a thermodynamical model to describe the thermomechanical behavior of ...

Shape Memory Alloys

open access: yesAnnual Review of Materials Science, 1988
In some alloys, a given plastic strain recovers completely when the con­ cerned alloy is heated above a certain temperature. This phenomenon, shape memory effect (SME), was observed in Au-Cd (1) and In-Tl (2) alloys in the first half of 1950s. However, SME was not a focus of research until it was found in a Ti-Ni alloy (3) in 1963, when the phenomenon ...

Brief Overview on Nitinol as Biomaterial

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2016
Shape memory alloys remember their shape due to thermoelastic martensitic phase transformation. These alloys have advantages in terms of large recoverable strain and these alloys can exert continuous force during use.

Application of Laguerre based adaptive predictive control to Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper discusses the use of an existing adaptive predictive controller to control some Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) linear actuators. The model consists in a truncated linear combination of Laguerre filters identified online.

Deformation and Fracture of Thin Sheets of Nitinol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Nickel-Titanium (Nitinol) is a Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) that exhibits superelasticity (pseudoelasticity) and shape memory by a solid-solid state diffusion-less phase transformation.

A constitutive model for cyclic actuation of high-temperature shape memory alloys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this work, a three dimensional constitutive model for High Temperature Shape Memory Alloys (HTSMAs) is presented. To describe the evolution of the cyclic actuation behavior of such alloys, viscoplastic mechanisms and transformation induced plasticity ...
