Advances in martensitic transformations in Cu-based shape memory alloys achieved by in situ neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction methods [PDF]
This article deals with the application of several X-ray and neutron diffraction methods to investigate the mechanics of a stress induced martensitic transformation in Cu-based shape memory alloy polycrystals. It puts experimental results obtained by two

The determination and evaluation of Nitinol constitutive models for finite element analysis [PDF]
Superelastic Ni-Ti (Nitinol) is a member of the shape memory alloy (SMA) family of metals. The physical properties of Nitinol are highly dependant on a number of factors, including manufacturing method, subsequent processing, operating temperature, and ...

INNOVATIVE USE OF SHAPE MEMORY ALLOYS AS REINFORCEMENTS FOR CONCRETE BEAM-COLUMN JOINTS: AN OVERVIEW
Shape memory alloys have two unique properties of shape memory effect (SME) and superelasticity (SE) that are the ability for large inelastic deformations recovery after heating (SME) and stress removal (SE).

Superelastic load cycling of Gum Metal [PDF]
The superelastic beta titanium alloy, Gum Metal, has been found to accumulate plastic strain during tensile load cycling in the superelastic regime. This is evident from the positive drift of the macroscopic stress vs. strain hysteresis curve parallel to the strain axis and the change in its geometry subsequent to every load-unload cycle.

Research Progress of Fe-Based Superelastic Alloys
In recent years, superelastic alloys have become a current research hotspot due to the large recoverable deformation, which far exceeds the elastic recovery. This will create more possibilities in practical applications.

On the experimental testing of fine Nitinol wires for medical devices [PDF]
Nitinol, a nickel titanium alloy, is widely used as a biocompatible metal with applications in high strain medical devices. The alloy exhibits both superelasticity and thermal shape memory behaviour. Basic mechanical properties can be established and are

Superelasticity of Geometrically Graded NiTi Shape Memory Alloys
A stress plateau with a strain of 5–8% normally occurs during the stress-induced martensite transformation (SIM) of NiTi shape memory alloys. Within the stress plateau, the correlation between the stress and strain is lost, which limits their application

Biomimetic superelastic graphene-based cellular monoliths [PDF]
Many applications proposed for graphene require multiple sheets be assembled into a monolithic structure. The ability to maintain structural integrity upon large deformation is essential to ensure a macroscopic material which functions reliably. However, it has remained a great challenge to achieve high elasticity in three-dimensional graphene networks.
