Transformation yield surface of shape memory alloys

Abstract

Shape-memory alloys transform under stress, and this stress-induced transformation is useful for various practical applications. The stress at which the alloy transforms depends on the orientation of the stress relative to the specimen, and may be described using a transformation yield surface. This paper provides early results of a theoretical treatment of the transformation yield surface of shape-memory polycrystals with particular emphasis on the influence of texture.
