Thermomechanical Modeling of Shape Memory Alloys with Rate Dependency on the Pseudoelastic Behavior
The loading-rate dependency on the pseudoelastic behaviors of shape memory alloy (SMA) wires is experimentally and numerically investigated. The results are analyzed to estimate the parameters for a thermomechanical constitutive model of SMA wire with strain-rate dependency of the hysteresis behavio...
