On the Damping Behaviour of Niti Shape Memory Alloy

Shape memory alloys exhibit a high damping capacity in the mktensite state. Results obtained from both DMA and cyclic tests under tension-compression load show that the martensite damping capacity in NiTi SMAs is a function of both strain amplitude and annealing temperature. Internal friction due to movements of martensite twin boundaries within both elastic (accommodation) and inelastic (reori...

Experimental Study on the Magnetomechanical Characteristics of Ni-Mn-Ga Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloy Single Crystals

Magnetic shape memory properties of Ni-Mn-Ga single crystals were characterized by measurement of stress-induced martensite reorientation under constant magnetic fields. Also magnetic field-induced strain as a function of the applied magnetic field under different constant compressive stress levels has been investigated. All the experiments were performed at room temperature in which the sample...

Vibration of a Shape Memory Alloy Wire

Ultrasonically assisted turning of NiTi based shape memory alloy

In this study, vibration cutting has been applied to machining of a novel material, NiTi based shape memory alloy (SMA), using a commercial ultrasonic piezoelectric transducer to vibrate an ISO insert CCMT geometry cutting tool. The effect of vibration in turning process was characterized by investigating the surface roughness of workpiece and surface quality assessment of machined surface usin...
