Abstract:The results of studies on the influence of ultrasonic vibrations (UVs) on shape memory effect (SME) in NiTi alloys are presented. The appearance of shape memory effect is due to changes in the temperature and mechanical stress. They can operate simultaneously under the ultrasonic treatment. It has been found that the ultrasonic vibrations can initiate shape recovery processes in a material with shape memory effect. The reversion of the accumulated deformation occurs at the direct and reverse martensite transfo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
