Recently, studying the shape memory effect of the biocompatible Ti alloys takes much attention in the biomedical and healthcare applications. This study concerns about characterizing the superelasticity of the new biocompatible Ti-17Nb-6Ta (TNT) alloy. Microstructure of TNT was observed using optical and confocal microscopes. The alloy consists of two phases: β (predominant phase) and α″ martensite phase. The influence of cold rolling deformation on the microstructure was illustrated in which the martensitic-induced transformation appeared by cold rolling. The alloy is ductile as only the fracture dimples appeared in its fracture surface. Multicyclic loading and deloading tensile testing was applied to TNT specimens (flat and wire shapes) in order to evaluate the superelasticity. A superelastic strain as high as 3.5% was recorded for this TNT alloy. Therefore, TNT alloy has high potential for many biomedical and healthcare applications.

An incremental form of constitutive model is proposed for shape memory alloys using the modified strain based on experimental results and the finite element analysis, taking into account of the laminar microstructure, the thickness of martensite phase lamina and the interaction between the two phases. The pseudoelastisity of NiTi shape memory alloy micro-tube subjected to pure tension and pure torsion are analyzed and compared with the experimental results respectively. It can be seen that the pseudoelastic behavior, especially the stress drop during tension processes, can be well described with the proposed model.

Shape memory effect (SME) in Nickel-Titanium (Ni-Ti) alloys is ascribed to the thermoelastic reversible martensite phase transformation. Phase transformation is established to be affected by the pre- thermal and mechanical history of the alloy. The present work deals with the effect of mechanical working, known as ‘marforming’ and ‘ausforming’, on the phase transformation characteristics and mechanical behaviour of Ti-rich Ni-Ti alloy. Tensile study and measurement of the hardness data were carried out at room temperature. Mere heat treatment or heat treatment at 773 K after the marforming shows similar characteristics, whereas, the as-received and the ausformed samples exhibit different behaviours. Hardness numbers of the heat treated samples are found to be smaller than those of the as-received and mechanically worked samples.

The processes of structure formation in Ti-Ni and in Ti-Nb-Zr, Ti-Nb-Ta shape memory alloys (SMA) under thermomechanical treatment (TMT) were studied. The TMT comprised cold rolling with true strains from e=0.25 to 2 and post-deformation annealing. Differences in these processes between two groups of alloys are considered. The main conclusions are as follows: nanostructures created by TMT are useful for radical improvement of the SMA functional properties, and an optimum nanostructure (nanocrystalline structure, nanosubgrained structure or theirmixture) should be selected by taking into account other structural and technological factors.

The aim of this paper is the investigation of electroplastic deformation (EPD) and subsequent annealing influence on martensitic transformation in the shape memory Ni50.7Ti49.3 alloy. Using differential scanning calorimetry method it was shown that EPD at the low strain stimulates structure relaxation and recovers martensitic transformation in cooling, which is usually suppressed by cold rolling.

Abstract: The research was conducted because of the many industries that use CuZn 70/30 as a raw material in industrialization. CuZn 70/30 was studied to obtain the strong mechanical properties of brass. Research CuZn 70/30 was evaluated using a process of heating of about 6150 ± 50C and then held for 90 minutes. The next process is the process of cold rolling by using a variety of reduction and then tested by using a Vickers hardness testing, tensile testing, observation of the microstructure. The result of this research is a fine microstructure (below 10 μm), hardness (HV 211.67). Tensile test also conducted to get how much resistance CuZn 70/30 to resist the pull. The cold rolling process causing the decrease the mechanical properties and also increase the plastic properties of the brass.

In tandem cold rolling, the control of the temperature of high-grade non-oriented silicon steel is a difficult problem for its large deformation resistance and the preheating procedure before rolling. And it is complicated to calculate the total temperature rise of rolling deformation zone due to the comprehensive influence of the plastic deformation heat, the friction heat and the contact heat loss. So, to precisely calculate the total temperature rise, firstly, based on the four classical cold rolling force formulas, the initial total temperature rise calculation models are established correspondingly by theoretically analyzing the temperature rise of deformation heat, the temperature rise of friction heat and the temperature drop of contact heat loss; then, the model based on the improved Lian rolling force formula is adopted, which leads to calculated best matching the measured temperature; finally, considering the complex formula calculation of the initial model, based on the influences of different rolling parameters on the total temperature rise, a simplified model for convenient calculation is proposed by the nonlinear regression analysis of the initial model calculation results and main rolling parameters, which is convenient for the actual application by the field technicians.
