Domain boundary engineering

E Salje, H Zhang - Phase Transitions, 2009 - Taylor & Francis
We review the idea that domain boundaries, rather than domains, can carry information and
act as memory devices. Domains are bulk objects; their large response to changing external …

Strain glass in ferroelastic systems: Premartensitic tweed versus strain glass

X Ren, Y Wang, Y Zhou, Z Zhang, D Wang… - Philosophical …, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
Cluster-spin glass and ferroelectric relaxors have been observed in defect-containing
ferromagnetic systems and ferroelectric systems, respectively. However, it is unclear …

Machine learning aided prediction of martensite transformation temperature of NiTi-based shape memory alloy

C Liu, H Su - Materials Today Communications, 2024 - Elsevier
The martensitic transformation temperature (Ms) of shape memory alloys plays a crucial role
in their performance. To achieve rapid prediction of Ms in shape memory alloys, this study …

Ultrahigh damping capacity achieved by modulating R phase in Ti49. 2Ni50. 8 shape memory alloy wires

An ultrahigh damping capacity with internal friction close to 0.35 was detected over a large
temperature range of 75° C (from-40 to 35° C) in Ti 49.2 Ni 50.8 shape memory wires by …

Twofold role of dislocations in the relaxation behavior of Ti–Ni martensite

G Fan, K Otsuka, X Ren, F Yin - Acta Materialia, 2008 - Elsevier
The relaxation peak in Ti–Ni-based shape memory alloys is attracting much attention as a
high damping source, and its origin was recently revealed to be the interaction between twin …

Orientation dependence of damping behavior in a Mn-Cu shape memory alloy
