Abstract:The understanding of the stabilization mechanism of martensite used to obtain alloys with high hysteresis and the possibility of recovering this martensite (residual strain) by heating at temperatures higher than A s and A f have been fundamental for application in bonding devices. One of the possibilities to enhance residual strain is through mechanical cycling. This work evaluated the influence of number of cycles and the effect of precipitation of Nb-rich particles as mechanisms to increase residual strain … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
