Shape memory behavior of ultrafine grained NiTi and TiNiPd shape memory alloys

The cyclic instability in shape memory characteristics of NiTi-based shape memory alloys (SMAs), such as transformation temperatures, transformation and irrecoverable strains and transformation hysteresis upon thermal and mechanical cycling limits their applications requiring high number of cycles....
