NiTi shape memory alloys are used in practice in their polycrystalline form and usually
consist of strong textures. The present research aims to understand the anisotropy in the …

Abstract Martensitic Ni 50 Ti 50 wires and sheets with different textures were tensile tested in
the temperature range between− 100° C and 60° C. The effect of texture and temperature on …

The effect of boundary condition on the mechanical behavior of superelastic NiTi shape
memory alloys is investigated in this paper. Experimental tests were carried out on NiTi …

It was observed that the reverse transformation of stress-induced martensite occurred at a
temperature some 20 K higher than that of thermal martensite. The increase in temperature …

At the proper composition and after receiving the appropriate thermomechanical treatment,
NiTi shape memory alloys show shape memory and superelastic behaviour. These effects …

The pre-textured NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) are used in the mechanical testing. The
pseudoelastic effect and the anisotropic behavior of NiTi SMA are observed. The material …

We carried out an in situ ultrasonic characterization of a NiTi shape memory alloy polycrystal
subjected to pseudoplastic straining. The measurement leads to a full elastic tensor of the …

For a cold-rolled NiTi sheet, the tensile stress–strain curves show a flat stress-plateau during
tension along the rolling direction, while under tension along the transverse direction the …

Formation and evolution of transformation domains in the super-elastic NiTi shape memory
alloy (SMA) subjected to the strain-and stress-controlled cyclic tension-unloading tests were …

The stress–strain curves of polycrystalline martensitic NiTi shape memory alloys are often
different for loading under tension and compression. Under tension, a flat stress-plateau …
