Processing effects on tensile superelastic behaviour of Fe43.5Mn34Al15 ± XNi7.5∓X shape memory alloys
(2019)
Fe₄₃.₅Mn₃₄Al₁₅Ni₇.₅ was introduced in the current decade as a new superelastic alloy with great applicative potential due to: (i) superelastic behaviour over a thermal range of 200°C and (ii) recoverable strains up to 9.7 %. One of the key factors in enhancing the superelastic response of several shape memory alloys (SMAs) is the formation of an oligocrystalline structure, i.e. without triple junctions between grains, which is the result of an abnormal grain growth (AGG) process that can be induced by cyclic heat ...

Shape memory effect and superelasticity in high-strength FeNiCoAlTi single crystals hardened by nanoparticles
(2019-11-19)
For [001]-oriented single crystals of Fe-28Ni-17Co-11.5Al-2.5Ti (at %) alloy in tension, it was shown that particles of the γ’-phase with a size of 4–6 nm lead to the appearance of superelasticity, with a strain of εSE=4.5% and a shape memory effect of εSME=5.9%. Increasing the particle size to 10–12 nm reduces εSE to 3.6% and εSME to 3.5%. The paper discusses the causes of the influence of particle size on the reversible strain.

Promoting abnormal grain growth in Fe-based shape memory alloys through compositional adjustments
(2019-05-28)
Iron-based shape memory alloys are promising candidates for large-scale structural applications due to their cost efficiency and the possibility of using conventional processing routes from the steel industry. However, recently developed alloy systems like Fe–Mn–Al–Ni suffer from low recoverability if the grains do not completely cover the sample cross-section. To overcome this issue, here we show that small amounts of titanium added to Fe–Mn–Al–Ni significantly enhance abnormal grain growth due to a considerable ...

Cyclic Deformation Response of Ultra-fine Grained Titanium at Elevated Temperatures
(2019)
This study focuses on the high-temperature cyclic deformation response (CDR) of ultra-fine grained (UFG) titanium of commercial purity (grade 4) processed via equal channel angular extrusion as a severe plastic deformation method. Low-cycle fatigue experiments were conducted at elevated temperatures up to 600 °C and at strain amplitudes ranging from 0.2% to 0.6%. Besides temperature and strain amplitude, the influence of two processing routes (8BC and 8E) on the fatigue characteristics of UFG Ti was examined. It is ...
