A shape memory alloy adaptive tuned vibration absorber: design and implementation
, 2005 In this paper a tuned vibration absorber (TVA) is realized using shape memory alloy (SMA) elements. The elastic modulus of SMA changes with temperature and this effect is exploited to develop a continuously tunable device.A TVA with beam elements is ...

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.The findings presented in this manuscript recommend the Ti‐22Zr‐11Nb‐2Sn alloy as a possible alternative to Nitinol for use in biomedical devices, especially in the large‐scale manufacturing of self‐expandable vascular stents used in angioplasty. ABSTRACT Nowadays, for applications such as coronary stents, the most widely used materials are Nitinol or ...

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Porous NiTi alloys are widely used in biomedical and engineering fields. Using the PBF‐LB technique, the TPMS and Voronoi porous parts with a porosity of ∼67% and a minimum feature size of 0.15 ± 0.02 mm were fabricated. Although the bulk sample fabricated with the same parameters is defect‐free, μ‐CT reconstruction on the porous sample ...

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A major challenge in fabricating eutectic NiTiNb alloys is the incomplete melting of Nb due to its much higher melting point than the NiTi matrix. In this work, a novel electron‐beam freeform additive manufacturing strategy is developed to eliminate unmelted Nb particles and achieve a fully eutectic structure through independent dual‐wire ...
