Fracture mechanics of pseudoelastic NiTi alloys: review of the research activities carried out at University of Calabria

This paper reports a brief review of the research activities on fracture mechanics of nickel-titanium based shape memory alloys carried out at University of Calabria. In fact, this class of metallic alloys show a unusual fracture response due to the reversible stress-induced and thermally phase tran...
