Constitutive modelling of shape memory alloys and upscaling of deformable porous media

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are metal alloys which are capable of changing their crystallographic structure as a result of externally applied mechanical or thermal loading. This work is a systematic effort to develop a robust, thermodynamics based, 3-D constitutive model for SMAs with special feature...
