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 …
Near-equiatomic NiTi shape memory alloys are known to exhibit Lüders-type deformation associated with a stress-induced transformation. Many studies have been conducted in the …
In this work, the rate-dependent and loading path-dependent cyclic deformation behaviors of super-elastic NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) are investigated under multiaxial cyclic …
The work presents a thermomechanical model for polycrystalline NiTi-based shape memory alloys developed within the framework of generalized standard solids, which is able to cover …
Tension induced phase transformation in pseudoelastic NiTi leads to inhomogeneous deformation with the austenitic and martensitic phases coexisting. Deformation of nearly 7 …
A novel experimental setup is presented that allows for precise control of thermal and mechanical loads, and simultaneous monitoring of the temperature and the full-field …
We recently demonstrated that pseudoelastic NiTi tubes compressed axially buckle first into an axisymmetric wrinkling mode but subsequently collapse by progressive development of …
In this work, effects of temperature and microstructure on tensile behavior of superelastic NiTi wires were analyzed. We analyzed cold-drawn NiTi wires of 1.78 mm that received four …
Under tension a pseudoelastic NiTi tube traces a closed hysteresis with an upper stress plateau associated with transformation from the austenitic to the martensitic phase during …
