Full-field measurement techniques are now mature. As such, they have profoundly impacted
the experimental mechanics community in recent years. The way that shape memory alloys …

To shed light on the origin of the loss of functional properties of NiTi with temperature
increasing above 100° C, we have investigated stress induced martensitic transformations in …

Abstract Ni 47 Ti 44 Nb 9 shape memory alloy (SMA) is a promising material in the
aerospace field due to its wide transformation hysteresis. The application of shape memory …

The developed NiTi-based shape memory alloys are the most widely used materials in
commercial applications due to shape memory effect and superelasticity. In this study, it is …

Several existing studies on the confinement effectiveness of shape modified concrete
columns have been conducted in the past, but the scope of these studies has mostly been …

It is widely accepted that the seismic retrofitting of nonseismically detailed reinforced
concrete beam-column joints (BCJs) in reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings is an …

The results of experimental analyses for the full-range compressive and flexural response of
concrete reinforced with pseudoelastic shape memory alloy fibres (PSMAFs) are discussed …

In this study, a detailed experimental and numerical investigation is carried out to study the
efficacy of prestressed SMA diagonal compression loops in seismic retrofitting of non …

The martensitic transformation behavior of NiTi-Nb composite wire following the pre-
deformation and shape recovery (PD&SR) process was investigated. The wire drawing …

The effect of impact-load training on shape recovery has been investigated in an Fe-based
shape-memory alloy. The Fe-28Mn-6Si-5Cr alloy samples underwent repeated training …
