An investigation has been carried out on the texture of Ti-44Ni-5Cu (at %) shape memory alloy wire. The texture of the B2 and monoclinic phases has been determined as a function of the degree of cold deformation during the drawing process and the number of cycles on thermomechanical cycling. After cold drawing and anlealing (823 K, 180 s ) under tensile stress, the [110], [li~] [loll and [loll ...
