Cyclic Response

In this work we present a constitutive model for High Temperature Shape Memory Alloys (HTSMAs), where the appearence of viscoplastic mechanisms during transformation influences the cyclic response of the actuator performance. Based on previous models developed for conventional SMAs, a Gibbs free energy potential is defined and the evolution equations for forward, reverse transformation, plasticity occuring during transformation, retained martensite and viscoplasticity are properly chosen. The calibration of the model is achieved with the help of experimental tests performed on TiPdNi alloy. The transformation behavior of the material is calibrated using fast load biased thermal cycling tests at selected stress levels with fast cooling/heating rate. The viscoplastic behavior of the HTSMA is captured with creep and uniaxial tests at appropriate temperature levels. Predictions of the model are compared with load biased thermal cycling tests at slow cooling/heating rate, where viscoplastic strains are significant.

Ti–Ni–Pd shape memory alloys are promising candidates for high-temperature actuators operating at above 373 K. One of the key issues in developing high-temperature shape memory alloys is the degradation of shape memory properties and dimensional stabilities because plastic deformation becomes more pronounced at higher working temperature ranges. In this study, the effect of the Ti:(Ni + Pd) atomic ratio in TixNi70−xPd30 alloys with Ti content in the range from 49 at.% to 52 at.% on the martensitic transformation temperatures, microstructures and shape memory properties during thermal cycling under constant stresses were investigated. The martensitic transformation temperatures decreased with increasing or decreasing Ti content from the stoichiometric composition. In both Ti-rich and Ti-lean alloys, the transformation temperatures decreased during thermal cycling and the degree of decrease in the transformation temperatures became more pronounced as the composition of the alloy departed from the stoichiometric composition. Ti2Pd and P phases were formed during thermal cycling in Ti-rich and Ti-lean alloys, respectively. Both Ti-rich and Ti-lean alloys exhibited superior dimensional stabilities and excellent shape memory properties with higher recovery ratio and larger work output during thermal cycling under constant stresses when compared with the alloys with near-stoichiometric composition.

Number Of Cycles

The effects of thermal cycling through the martensitic transformation have been studied in three Cu–Al–Ni–Mn–B high temperature shape memory alloys. An increase of the martensitic transformation temperatures with the number of cycles (up to ∼7 K after 60 cycles) has been generally observed by DSC measurements. The microstructure of these alloys is rather complicated, with the presence of big manganese or aluminum boride particles and small boron precipitates, as well as the formation of dislocations during thermal cycling. By means of aging experiments, it has been shown that the evolution of transformation temperatures during cycling is mainly due to the step-by-step aging in parent phase accompanying the thermal cycling, and that the dislocations formed during cycling have only a very small effect, at least up to 60 cycles.

In this research, four high temperature shape memory alloys, Ti50Ni25-xPd25Cux (x = 0, 5, 10 and 15) were developed and designated 0Cu, 5 Cu, 10 Cu, and 15Cu, respectively. The effect of 5%, 10%, and 15% (all in atomic percent) Cu addition was investigated through their microstructure analysis, transformation temperatures and thermal stability. After the alloying of Cu content in their desired percentage, the alloys were named as 0Cu, 5Cu, 10Cu and 15Cu alloys. The martensite onset temperature Ms of ternary 0Cu alloy increased by 12.5 ℃, 27.5 ℃ and 60.5 ℃, respectively, by replacement of Ni with 5%, 10% and 15% Cu. Similarly, the austenite finish temperature Af increased by 11 ℃, 25 ℃, and 52 ℃, respectively. At the same time, thermal hysteresis of the 5Cu, 10Cu, and 15Cu alloys decreased by 1.5 ℃, 2.5 ℃, and 8.5 ℃, respectively, as compared to 0Cu alloy. The thermal stability of ternary 0Cu alloy was improved by replacing Ni with Cu. During thermal cycling, the net drop in Ms and Af of 0Cu alloy was 7.5 ℃ and 14 ℃, respectively. By replacing Ni with 5%, 10%, and 15% Cu, the net drop in Ms decreased to 5 ℃, 3.7 ℃, and 3 ℃, respectively, whereas the net drop in Af decreased to 10 ℃, 8.7 ℃, and 5 ℃. The overall results suggested that by the addition of 5%, 10%, and 15% Cu in place of Ni in TiNiPd alloys, the transformation temperatures and thermal stability improved. At the same time, thermal hysteresis decreased to a reasonable level which has a positive effect on the actuation behavior.
