Abstract

The effect of constraint heating on shape-memory properties in Ni-Ti alloys is studied. Specimens which memorized linear shape showed remarkable shape deterioration under constraint conditions above 1% bending surface strain and 100° C heating temperature. A reversible shape-memory effect was obtained after constraint heating, and shape change due to this was about 1.4% bending surface strain. These effects strongly depend on ageing temperatures during shape-memory treatment.
