A micromechanics-inspired constitutive model for shape-memory alloys
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a three-dimensional constitutive model for shape-memory alloys that generalizes the one-dimensional model presented earlier (Sadjadpour and Bhattacharya 2007 Smart Mater. Struct. 16 S51–62). These models build on recent micromechanical studies of the underlying microstructure of shape-memory alloys, and a key idea is that of an effective transformation strain of the martensitic microstructure. This paper explains the thermodynamic setting of the model, demonstrates it through examples involving proportional and non-proportional loading, and shows that the model can be fitted to incorporate the effect of texture in polycrystalline shape-memory alloys.

A micromechanics inspired constitutive model for shape-memory alloys: the one-dimensional case
This paper presents a constitutive model for shape-memory alloys that builds on ideas generated from recent micromechanical studies of the underlying microstructure. The presentation here is in one dimension. It is applicable in a wide temperature range that covers both the shape-memory effect and superelasticity, is valid for a wide range of strain rates and incorporates plasticity. The thermo...
متن کاملA micromechanics-inspired constitutive model for shape-memory alloys that accounts for initiation and saturation of phase transformation
A constitutive model to describe macroscopic elastic and transformation behaviors of polycrystalline shape-memory alloys is formulated using an internal variable thermodynamic framework. In a departure from prior phenomenological models, the proposed model treats initiation, growth kinetics, and saturation of transformation distinctly, consistent with physics revealed by recent multi-scale expe...
متن کاملConstitutive Model of Shape Memory Alloys for Asymmetric Quasiplastic Behavior
A simple constitutive model of shape memory alloys for analyses of tension–compression quasiplastic behavior is derived. Here, three martensitic variants are considered; namely, thermal-induced, tensile stress-induced, and compressive stress-induced martensitic variants. Reorientation from one variant to another variant is assumed to take place according to a reorientation energy criterion base...
