Thermal cycling effects in Cu-Zn-Al shape memory alloy by positron lifetime measurementS

    Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 22 - Publication in policy or professional journal

    Abstract

    The present paper shows that Mf and As of CuZuAl shape memory material will decrease with increasing number of thermal cycles, while Ms and Af remain constant. On the other hand, the thermal hysteresis will decrease and the shape memory strain will remain constant. The thermal cycling behaviour is closely related to the formation of vacancy clusters by vacancy agglomeration. © 1995.
