Shape Memory Alloys (Part I): Significant Properties [PDF]
Kemija u Industriji, 2014 Shape memory alloys (SMAs) belong to a group of functional materials with the unique property of “remembering” the shape they had before pseudoplastic deformation.

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

Identifying shape transformations from photographs of real objects. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 An important task of human visual cognition is to make inferences about properties of objects. One such property is an object's causal history: what happened to the object in its past (e.g., "this paper has been folded").

Shape Transformations of Epithelial Shells [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2016 Regulated deformations of epithelial sheets are frequently foreshadowed by patterning of their mechanical properties. The connection between patterns of cell properties and the emerging tissue deformations is studied in multiple experimental systems, but the general principles remain poorly understood.

The Eccentricity Transform (of a Digital Shape) [PDF]
, 2006 Eccentricity measures the shortest length of the paths from a given vertex v to reach any other vertex w of a connected graph Computed for every vertex v it transforms the connectivity structure of the graph into a set of values For a connected region of a digital image it is defined through its neighbourhood graph and the given metric This transform ...

Theoretical modelling of the effect of plasticity on reverse transformation in superelastic shape memory alloys [PDF]
, 2003 Stimulated by recent experimental results on superelastic NiTi shape memory alloy, a theoretical study is carried out to quantify the effect of plasticity on stress-induced martensite transformation, using a constitutive model that combines phase ...
