Potential Applications

Shape-memory Alloys are attractive for many potential applications. In an attempt to provide ideas and guidelines for the development of new shape-memory alloys, this paper reports on a series of investigations that examine the reasons in the crystallography that make (i) shape-memory alloys special amongst martensites and (ii) Nickel-Titanium special among shape-memory alloys.

Abstract Background: To explore the role of nickel-titanium(NiTi) shape memory alloy embracing fixator in determination of implantation angle of hip tumor prosthesis stem and analyze its efficacy. Methods: 36 patients with proximal femur tumor were treated with extended tumor resection and prosthetic replacement. 14 patients received prosthetic replacements with the embracing fixators fixing between the junction of the prosthesis stem and the femur temporarily, while the other 22 patients received the same replacements but without the fixators. Following aspects were compared: occurrence of complications, limb function and active hip ROM.Results: There are fewer cases of hip dislocation in the group received prosthetic replacements with the use of embracing fixators. Occurrence of deep infection presented no difference between the two groups. Better limb function and higher active range of motion (ROM) on abduction or flexion were also found in the group using embracing fixators. Conclusion: Ni-Ti shape memory alloy embracing fixator plays a key part in assisting the accurate implantation angle of the prosthesis stem in the prosthetic replacement. The prosthesis stem can be adjusted to the optimal angle with the help of the embracing fixator. Patients have lower chance of dislocation, better limb function, and higher active hip ROM. Trial registration: retrospectively registered.

This work aimed to produce mechanical components of nickel–titanium shape memory alloys using investment casting processes. Then, in order to validate processing, different designs of nickel–titanium shape memory alloy components as staple implants, Belleville springs, meshes, helical springs, screws and hexagonal honeycombs were produced and submitted to thermal and mechanical characterization. Thermoelastic martensitic transformation of the nickel–titanium shape memory alloy parts was determined by differential scanning calorimetry and electrical resistance with temperature, while the superelastic behaviour was verified by cyclic tensile and compression tests. It has been demonstrated that the employed investment casting processes are suitable to manufacture nickel–titanium shape memory alloy mechanical components with simple and complicated designs as well as functional properties related to phase transformation and superelasticity.
