Shape-memory effects in molecular crystals [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 AbstractMolecular crystals can be bent elastically by expansion or plastically by delamination into slabs that glide along slip planes. Here we report that upon bending, terephthalic acid crystals can undergo a mechanically induced phase transition without delamination and their overall crystal integrity is retained.

Memory effect in growing trees [PDF]
, 2004 We show that the structure of a growing tree preserves an information on the shape of an initial graph. For the exponential trees, evidence of this kind of memory is provided by means of the iterative equations, derived for the moments of the node-node ...

High performance shape memory polyurethane synthesized with high molecular weight polyol as the soft segment [PDF]
, 2012 Shape memory polyurethanes (SMPUs) are typically synthesized using polyols of low molecular weight (MW~2,000 g/mol) as it is believed that the high density of cross-links in these low molecular weight polyols are essential for high mechanical strength ...

Triple-shape memory effect in 3D-printed polymers
eXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2020 A triple-shape memory effect represents that polymers can memorize two temporary shapes and show a subsequent recovery from the second temporary shape to the first temporary shape and further to the permanent shape with heating, which provides more ...

Elinvar effect in Ti50-xNi41Co9Nbx shape memory alloys
Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023 Based on the observation of Elinvar effect in non-magnetic Co doped TiNi alloys, we added a small amount of Nb to Ti50Ni41Co9 alloy with low Co content to regulate the phase transformation behaviors and induce Elinvar effect. The effects of Nb content on
