The development of surface technologies to obtain improved tribomechanical and biological
characteristics of synthetic NiTi implants is critical. A suitable match with the mechanical …

Stress-induced martensite always exhibits an oriented microstructure, which leads to
mechanical anisotropy in NiTi alloys. In this study, the effects of grain size on the …

NiTi shape memory alloys are known to exhibit a Lüders-type deformation behavior
associated with its stress-induced martensitic transformation. Such phase-transformation …

Abstract Inside the Clausius-Clapeyron regime, transformation stresses during superelastic
tensile tests of polycrystalline shape memory alloys are linearly dependent on temperature …

This study investigated the effect of tensile deformation on the transformation behaviour of
NiTi within the constrained environment of NiTi–Nb composites. Particular attention is given …

Herein, a quasi‐linear superelasticity (≈ 2.3%) with the ultralow elastic modulus (≈ 18
GPa) over a wide temperature range (≈ 55 K) in tensile cyclic deformed TiNi shape memory …

Recent studies have shown that conventional meshes comprising pure titanium and its
alloys can be used to assist the recovery of bone fractures in various parts of the human …

NiTi shape memory alloys have been extensively studied owing to its superelasticity.
However, the application of coarse-grained NiTi alloys is limited due to their low superelastic …

This study analyses the thermomechanical tensile behaviour of a cold drawn Ti-50.9 at.% Ni
wire submitted to heat treatment at 598 K for 30 min, which is below the recrystallization …

Dynamic mechanical analyzers (DMA) are applied in the thermomechanical characterization
of shape memory alloys (SMA). The great sensitivity and capacity to detect small changes in …
