SHAPE MEMORY LOCKING DEVICE FOR ORTHOPEDIC IMPLANTS [PDF]
A mechanism to connect the supporting portions of orthopaedic implants such as in the head, spine, upper limb and lower limb and thereby prevent loosening and fretting at the implant interface of an orthopaedic implant construct has been developed based ...

Intrinsic two-way shape memory effect in a Ni-Mn-Sn metamagnetic shape memory microwire
Abstract An intrinsic two-way shape memory effect with a fully recoverable strain of 1.0 % was achieved in an as-prepared Ni50Mn37.5Sn12.5 metamagnetic shape memory microwire fabricated by Taylor-Ulitovsky method. This two-way shape memory effect is mainly owing to the internal stress caused by the retained martensite in austenite matrix, as revealed
