Hard pseudoelastic TiNiCu shape memory alloy development via a novel thermocapillary-driven additive manufacturing route

This study presents a novel approach for developing hard pseudoelastic TiNiCu ternary shape memory alloy (SMA) using laser-directed energy deposition (LDED). We harness the thermocapillary convection to achieve effective material transport by depositing a Cu-Ni powder premix while extracting Ti from...
