Elastocaloric effect and mechanical behavior for NiTi shape memory alloys |
(color online) (a) Isothermal stress–strain curves of NiTi alloys with applied strain of 7% at different temperatures. (b) Curves of critical stress of stress-induced MT and reverse MT versus temperature. (c) Isothermal hysteresis loop area of the above isothermal stress–strain curves at different temperatures. (d) Young’s moduli of NiTi alloys at different temperatures. |
