Abstract

Fast and sensitive infrared camera was used in order to capture thermal effects accompanying SMA and SMP loading on testing machine. Nucleation and development of stress-induced exothermic martensite forward and endothermic reverse transformations in SMA were monitored. Temperature changes related to various stages of the SMP deformation, including inhomogeneous temperature distribution related to the strain localization, were presented. The SMA and SMP thermomechanical behavior depending on the strain rate was discussed.
