Starting from the basic principles of the martensitic transformation, on which the shape memory effect and the superelasticity of alloys are based, the mechanisms of the two phenomena are clearly ...

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are unique materials that exhibit shape memory behavior, which is exemplified by the ability recover large deformations due to changes in external loading conditions, ...

This book, the first dedicated to this exciting and rapidly growing field, enables readers to understand and prepare high-quality, high-performance TiNi shape memory alloys (SMAs). It covers the ...

Researchers at Texas A&M University and Sandia National Laboratories have improved interlocking metasurfaces (ILMs), which increase the strength and stability of a structure, with shape memory alloys ...

"In collaboration with Sandia National Laboratories, the original developers of ILMs, we have engineered and fabricated ILMs from shape memory alloys. Our research demonstrates that these ILMs can ...

The researchers achieved this by using shape memory alloys (SMAs). ILMs offer the potential to transform the mechanical joint ...

Nickel alloys are not suitable for high temperature sulfur rich environments such as coal-burning plants. Other metals like molybdenum, iron, and aluminum are added in specific amounts for specialized ...

In a recently published article in IEEE Electron Devices Magazine the authors, I was one of them, looked at the impact of external magnetic fields ... static random-access memory, SRAM ...

Or maybe there’s a spot in the disk that is going bad, and the stronger magnetic field is required to reset the floppy’s field. Let us know your guess, or if you know the answer, fill us in!

Magnets are made from magnetic metals – iron ... magnetised are described as magnetically hard. These are often alloys of iron, nickel and cobalt. Substances that can only be temporarily ...
