Recent progresses in the understanding of the elastic and anelastic properties of H-free, H-doped and H-contaminated NiTi based alloys

This review is focused on the influence of interstitial hydrogen and alloy compositional changes on the internal friction (IF) spectrum and elastic Young's modulus (E) of NiTi based shape memory alloys. In the martensitically transforming binary alloys Ni50+xTi50-x (x≤1.3) vacuum annealed and f...
