Micromechanical modeling of porous shape memory alloys /

A thermomechanical constitutive model for fully dense shape memory alloys (SMAs) is developed in this work. The model accounts for development of transformation and plastic strains during martensitic phase transformation, as well as for the evolution of the transformation cycle. The developed model...
