This paper focuses on the thermo-mechanical behaviors of the shape memory alloy board with a crack and under the torsion load. A stress field equation from mechanics of elasticity is used to describe the stress distribution around the crack tip in the shape memory alloy board. A martensitic phase transition equation is supposed to predict the martensitic phase transition behaviors of the field near the crack tip in the shape memory alloy board. The martensitic phase transition zones near the crack tip in the shape memory alloy board under the torsion load are numerically described based on the stress field equation and martensitic phase transition equation at various temperatures. Results show that the stress field equation and martensitic phase transition equation can predict the thermo-mechanical behaviors of the shape memory alloy board with a crack and under the torsion load effectively.

AbstractAn interesting problem within the research on shape memory is provided by the investigation of the pseudo-elastic hysteresis loop that accompanies the strain-induced austenitic-martensitic phase transition. Miller [1] suggested by thermodynamic arguments that the size of that loop should be related to the coherency energy at interfaces between martensite and austenite. That proposition received a boost when Müller & Xu [2] showed that the same thermodynamic arguments predicted the onset of internal yield and recovery inside the hysteresis loop on a well-definqd line of unstable phase equilibrium. Recently Fu, Müller and Xu [3] have reported results with improved specimens and methods of observation that may help to understand the nature of metastability inside the hysteresis loop.
