Effect of pre-deformation on hysteresis in TiNiFe shape memory alloys

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

The mechanical properties, shape memory effect and martensitic transformation temperatures in the TiNiFe alloys were measured. A ductility of more than 20% and shape recovery strain of 5.8% were obtained in these alloys. The shape memory effect increased with the increase of deformation, and reached a maximum value appearing at 8% total strain. The pre-deformation raised significantly the reverse transformation temperatures and the hysteresis was enlarged by more than 40 °C when the total strain exceeded 6%.
