What is it about?

With help of a universal testing machine and an environmental chamber, NiTi wire samples were deformed at different temperatures and deformation velocities.

Why is it important?

NiTi alloy forming and applications take place under different conditions. Thus, it is important to investigate the mechanical variations associated with these variables.

Perspectives

The results of this investigation can be employed in the development NiTi applications which operate at different temperatures and also optimization of thermomechanical treatments. Further investigation is essential for the understanding of the underlying mechanisms responsible for the observed mechanical variation.
