The two-way shape memory effect in quenched thin bar resulted from the preferential formation/extinction of martensite variant due to the internal quench stress, and the variant was formed at an angle of about 45 deg. with the tension direction ([001] of the βphase). Initial thermomechanical cycling under relatively low stress single variant stress-induced martensite was formed at an angle of 45 deg. with the tension and its morphology was a lath of parallel twins. More than one group of variants were formed after several training cycles and such variants also caused tilting of some thermally formed accommodated martensite. By overheating the trained sample containing stabilized multi-variants of stress-induced martensite, very coarse martensite structure with a strong asymmetry was produced, which caused the reverse two-way shape memory effect.展开更多

The results show that the pseudo yield stress decreases with the increase of cycling number, and keeping load isothermally has an effect on stabilization of SIM. Previous thermal cycling between ( M s-20 ℃) and ( A f+20 ℃) promotes the superelasticity and the stabilization of SIM as well; the pre thermal cycling also reduces the pseudo yield stress. However, once the stabilization of SIM is produced, it can be destabilized by either the afterwards thermal cooling heating cycling or load and immediately unload cycling in ( A f～ M d). Isothermal treatment in ( A f～ M d) brings restabilization of SIM. The maximum superelastic value from β → β ′ 1(18 R ) is 9% for the studied single crystal. When test temperature is in A f～( A f+50 ℃) and stress is in 0～350 MPa, the superelastic behavior exist. [展开更多

Abnormal high stress induced deformation exists in A p～ M p under the conditions of either heating with load or cooling with load. The recovered deformation is successively composed of four parts, the recoveries from superelasticity, normal reverse transformation, thermally activated reverse transformation of partially stabilized martensite and reverse transformation of stabilized martensite by over heating. With increasing cycling number, the recovery part from normal reverse transformation decreases, while that from reverse transformation of stabilized martensite by over heating increases, which shows a typical stabilization of martensite.展开更多

The chemical enthalpy change, the elastic energy stored at the interfaces or inside of the martensite and the energy dissipated in acoustic emission were calculated for a partial transformation; the relationship among them was studied based on measured latent heat and transformation temperatures. The influence of specimen shape on the stored elastic energy was evaluated and discussed.展开更多
