Plastic yielding of NiTi shape memory alloy under local canning compression

镍钛形状记忆合金在局部包套压缩下的塑性屈服(英文)

As a new attempt, local canning compression was applied in order to implement large plastic deformation of nickel-titanium shape memory alloy （NiTi SMA） at room temperature. The plastic mechanics of local canning compression of NiTi SMA was analyzed according to the slab method as the well as plastic yield criterion. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） were used to study the microstructural evolution as well as deformation behavior of NiTi samples under local canning compression. Increasing the hydrostatic pressure with the increase in the outer diameters of the steel cans is responsible for suppressing the initiation and growth of the micro-cracks, which contributes to enhancing the plasticity ofNiTi SMA and avoiding the occurrence of brittle fracture. Plastic deformation of NiTi SMA under a three-dimensional compressive stress state meets von-Mises yield criterion at the true strains ranging from about 0.15 to 0.50, while in the case of larger plastic strain, von-Mises yield criterion is unable to be met since the amorphous phase arises in the deformed NiTi sample.

作为一种崭新的尝试，局部包套压缩被应用于实现镍钛形状记忆合金在室温下的大塑性变形。基于主应力法和塑性屈服准则，分析了镍钛形状记忆合金局部包套的压缩塑性力学。采用透射电镜、高分辨透射电镜和扫描电镜研究镍钛形状记忆合金在局部包套压缩下的显微组织演变和变形行为。静水压力随着包套外径的增加而增加，有效地抑制了显微裂纹的萌生和扩展，有助于提高镍钛形状记忆合金的塑性，避免了脆性断裂的发生。在0．15～0．50的真实应变范围内，镍钛形状记忆合金在三向压应力状态下的塑性变形满足密席斯塑性屈服准则。在更大的塑性应变下，由于非晶相的出现，镍钛合金不能满足密席斯塑性屈服准则。
