Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are unique materials that exhibit shape memory behavior, which is exemplified by the ability recover large deformations due to changes in external loading conditions, ...

A recent article in Materials & Design presented an in-situ study of compression creep and stress relaxation in a Fe-based ...

Starting from the basic principles of the martensitic transformation, on which the shape memory effect and the superelasticity of alloys are based, the mechanisms of the two phenomena are clearly ...

This book, the first dedicated to this exciting and rapidly growing field, enables readers to understand and prepare high-quality, high-performance TiNi shape memory alloys (SMAs). It covers the ...
