[MATH] precipitates in [MATH] Cu-based shape memory alloys : influence on the martensitic transformation and the thermal and pseudoelastic cycling
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of different distributions of y-phase precipitates on the martensitic transformation of p Cu-Zn-A1 single crystals is reviewed. The changes of transformation temperatures brought about by the precipitates are related to the changes of the free energy terms included in the thermoelastic balance. In the same way, the evolution of the transformation in samples containing precipitates submitted to thermal and pseudoelastic cycling will be also discussed. In some cases, the presence of precipitates improves the behaviour of the material under cycling.

TRANSFORMATION BEHAVIOR OF NiTi SHAPE MEMORY ALLOYS TREATED BY THERMOMECHANICAL PROCESSING USING DSC
Abstract: In the present study the effect of thermomechanical treatment (cold work and annealing) on the transformation behavior of NiTi shape memory alloys was studied. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to determine transformation temperature and its relation to precipitates and defects. Three alloys including Ti-50.3at.% Ni, Ti-50.5at.% Ni (reclamated orthodontic wires) and 50.6at...
متن کاملEffect of the Primary Microstructures during Training Producers on TWSME in NiTi Alloys (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The influence of the martensitic, martensitic+austenitic and austenitic structures in bending training on two-way shape memory effect (TWSME) in Ni-50.8 at %Ti and Ni-49.9 at %Ti alloys was studied. In addition of the primary structure, the effect of pre-strain, plastic strain, training cycle and training temperature on the TWSME was investigated. The prepared samples were trained in martensiti...
متن کاملThe Electric Resistance of Shape Memory Alloys in the Pseudoelastic Regime
The electric resistance, sensitively dependent on the electronic structure and currently used to detect transformation temperatures in shape memory alloys, deserves attention also in the stress transformation domain. In fact, the electric resistance has already been investigated under increasing stress in the martensitic phase of several shape memory alloys: in this case a linear relationship i...
متن کاملDamping Properties of Shape Memory Alloys During Phase Transformation
A high damping capacity is considered as one of the important functional properties of shape memory alloys. Those properties are related to a thermoelastic martensitic transformation. As a consequence of this transformation, the internal friction or damping can be investigated for three different states: 1. during thermal transformation cycling, 2. during martensite induced strain cycling at co...

The phase transformation phenomenon due to the crystallographic change of shape memory alloys subjected to mechanical or thermal loading is very complicated. Regarding the thermo-mechanical coupling effects in shape memory alloys, in case of high loading rates, heat generation/absorption during the forward/reverse transformation, will lead in temperature-dependent variation and consequent...
