Superelastic response and damping behavior of additively manufactured Nitinol architectured materials

In energy absorption applications, architectured metallic materials generally suffer from unrecoverable deformation as a result of local yield damage or inelastic buckling. Nitinol (NiTi) offers recoverable deformation and energy dissipation due to its unique superelasticity, which can change the way we design and additively manufacture...

Achieving superelasticity in additively manufactured Ni-lean NiTi by crystallographic design

Superelastic metallic materials possessing large recoverable strains are widely used in automotive, aerospace and energy conversion industries. Superelastic materials working at high temperatures and with a wide temperature range are increasingly required for demanding applications. Until recently, high-temperature superelasticity has only...
