Abstract

The effect of stress state on the character and extent of the stress-induced martensitic transformation in polycrystalline Ni-Ti shape memory alloy has been investigated. Utilizing unique experimental equipment, uniaxial and triaxial stress states have been imposed on Ni-Ti specimens and the pseudoelastic transformation strains have been monitored. Comparisons between tests of differing stress states have been performed using effective stress and effective strain quantities; a strain offset method has been utilized to determine the effective stress required for transformation under a given stress state. Results of the tests under different stress states indicate that (1) despite the negative volumetric strain associated with the austenite-to-martensite transformation in Ni-Ti, effective stress for the onset of transformation decreases with increasing hydrostatic stress; (2) effective stressvs effective strain behavior differs greatly under different applied stress states; and (3) austenite in Ni-Ti is fully stable under large values of compressive hydrostatic stress.
