Endovascular stenting has matured into a commonly used treatment for peripheral arterial
disease (PAD) due to its minimally invasive nature and associated reductions in short-term …

In near equiatomic NiTi alloys, the thermoelastic transformation between austenite and the R-
phase shows unique properties, which make the R-phase transformation very promising for …

While many uniaxial tension experiments of shape memory alloys (SMAs) have been
published in the literature, relatively few experimental studies address their behavior in …

NiTi polycrystalline shape memory alloys, when stretched, can deform through the formation
and growth of localized macroscopic martensite domains. In this paper, we study the effects …

A thermomechanical model for a shape memory alloy (SMA) wire under uniaxial loading is
implemented in a finite element framework, and simulation results are compared with …

At the nanoscale, elastic strain and crystal defects largely influence the properties and
functionalities of materials. The ability to predict the structural evolution of catalytic …

The viscous and rate dependent behavior of binary, pseudoelastic NiTi is investigated. The
main focus is on the decoupling of thermal and viscous effects on the transformation stress …

Superelastic fine-grained Nickel–Titanium (NiTi) polycrystalline shape memory alloys under
tensile loading deform collectively via the nucleation and growth of macroscopic martensite …

This paper reports a study on non-linear temperature dependences of the critical
pseudoelastic stress and stress hysteresis for stress-induced martensitic transformation …

It is often reported that, to successfully join NiTi shape memory alloys, fusion-based
processes with reduced thermal affected regions (as in laser welding) are required. This …
