Abstract

In this paper shape memory will be discussed from various points of view: crystallographic, phenomenological, and thermodynamic. The discussion begins with an account of the crystallographic accommodation of martensitic twins and austenite which is also supported with instructive micrographs, although the effects of applied force are not dealt with. In the phenomenological portion of the paper, schematic diagrams of the load-deformation-temperature behaviour of memory alloys are presented, and some examples of their application are described. Finally, a model is introduced which permits an intuitive understanding of the complex thermodynamical behaviour of memory alloys and allows the numerical simulation of deformations as a response to applied loads and temperatures.
