On the electronic and mechanical instabilities in Ni50.9Ti49.1

چکیده
Both the superelastic and the shape memory properties of the cubic NiTi alloy known as Nitinol arise from two-phase transitions; from a simple cubic austenite phase to a trigonal R-phase and to a lower symmetry martensite phase. In this article, we speculate that two competing forces drive these transitions. One is “mechanical” in nature and it takes the cubic austenite structure of NiTi to a denser packing arrangement. The other one appears to be “electronic” in nature and it modifies the cubic austenite structure by correlated “Jahn–Teller” type distortions, and perhaps a fluctuation of charge density. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.

Effects of asymmetric stiffness on parametric instabilities of rotor
This work deals with effects of asymmetric stiffness on the dynamic behaviour of the rotor system. The analysis is presented through an extended Lagrangian Hamiltonian mechanics on the asymmetric rotor system, where symmetries are broken in terms of the rotor stiffness. The complete dynamics of asymmetries of rotor system is investigated with a case study. In this work, a mathematical model is ...

Abstract Financial and electronic debts are one of the important issues in Iran's financial scope that are considered by economists due to their role in creating financial instabilities. Therefore, a model was represented in this survey to evaluate and rank financial and electronic debts in Iran including foreign debts, governmental debts, non-governmental debts and banking debts during the pe...
متن کاملQuantum mechanical investigation of 4-hydroxy phenyl azobenzene adsorption on the boron nitride nanotubes
In this study, the adsorption of 4-hydroxy phenyl-azobenzene on the surface of (4, 0) zigzag open-end boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) has been investigated by quantum calculations. In order to find the preferred adsorption site, different positions and orientations were considered. The impacts of donor-acceptor electron delocalization on the structural and electronic properties and reactivity of ...
