Constitutive behavior of engineering materials is typically characterized by stress–strain curves from isothermal tensile and/or compression tests until fracture. Strain reversible martensitically transforming shape memory alloys (SMA) additionally cyclic and strain-temperature limited to temperatures stresses, at which the recorded strain responses are in closed loop cycles. In this work focussing coupled martensitic transformation plastic deformation NiTi, we deformed nanocrystalline NiTi...
Although superelastic NiTi shape memory alloy wire displays very high resistance to plastic deformation in austenite and martensite phases, incremental strains are recorded whenever the cubic monoclinic martensitic transformation (MT) proceeds under external stress leading functional fatigue degradation. Therefore, special closed-loop thermomechanical loading tests were performed shed light on mechanism by which strain generated. These revealed that both forward reverse MTs occurring above...

Abstract The stress-strain-temperature thermomechanical responses of NiTi shape memory alloys due to B2-B19′ martensitic transformation (MT) should ideally be phase and strain reversible in closed-loop load cycles, where the austenite martensite phases do not undergo plastic deformation. However, this ideal behavior is only observed when MT occurs under zero or very low externally applied stresses. When higher stresses, it generates small strains. These strains accumulate whenever proceeds...
Functional behavior of NiTi shape memory alloys is restricted to temperatures below 150 {\deg}C. To shed light on the origin loss functional properties with increasing temperature, we have investigated stress induced martensitic transformations in nanocrystalline wire by thermomechanical testing supplemented post-mortem reconstruction martensite variant microstructures grains transmission electron microscopy. It was found that forward transformation proceeding via propagation macroscopic...
