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 consequently af...

this study presents a new approach to control the nonlinear dynamics of an adaptive absorber using shape memory alloy (sma) element. shape memory alloys are classified as smart materials that can remember their original shape after deformation. stress and temperature-induced phase transformations are two typical behaviors of shape memory alloys. changing the stiffness associated with phase tran...

Medical staples are one of the nitinol shape memory alloys applications which their pedicles have to be bent for suitable function with an appropriate angle at a specified temperature .It is achievable by shape memory effect. For this purpose, samples of nitinol super elastic alloys were bent in a steel mold with different angles & formed orthopedic staples. Then shape memory effect was induced...
