Instrumented indentation of transforming and no-transforming phases in Cu–Al–Be shape-memory alloys

Influence of Directional Solidification on the Mechanical Properties of Cu-Al-Be-Nb-Ni Alloy

“…al. 17 find a mean value of 74 GPa for the elastic modulus of the austenite phase (β) of a polycrystalline Cu-Al-Be alloy by means of instrumented indentation tests with a maximum applied load of 2000 μN.…”

“…This technique can be used to investigate small volumes of material and therefore can be used to study local variations in mechanical response 13 . The mechanical behavior of Cu-Al-Be polycrystalline alloys was investigated by Montecinos et al 17 via instrumented indentation using a Berkovich-type indenter and estimated a the elastic modulus and hardness from the depth-load curves using the Oliver-Pharr method.…”

Medición del módulo de Young en metales mediante la técnica de excitación por impulso

“…Se encuentran en la literatura algunos estudios donde se reporta el módulo E en distintas aleaciones base cobre, específicamente en aleaciones CuAlBe [5][6][7][8] y CuBe [9]. Sin embargo, la mayoría de ellos han sido determinados mediante técnicas destructivas.…”

Effects of grain size on plastic deformation in a β CuAlBe shape memory alloy

“…Studies about the pseudoelastic effect of CuAlBe alloys have been reported [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. In a previous work we analyzed the deformation of a CuAlBe polycrystalline alloy with a grain size of 0.5 mm [6].…”
