Reversible martensitic transformations (MTs) are the origin of many fascinating phenomena, including the famous shape memory effect. In this work, we present a fully ab initio procedure to characterize MTs in alloys and to assess their…

We study through the time evolution of magnetization the low temperature (T) dynamics of the metastable coexisting phases created by traversing different paths in magnetic field (H) and T space in a shape memory alloy system,…

We study a system of classical particles in two dimensions interacting through an isotropic pair potential that displays a martensitic phase transition between a triangular and a rhomboidal structure upon the change of a single parameter.…

Ferroic materials enable a multitude of emerging applications, and optimum functional properties are achieved when ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties are coupled to a first-order ferroelastic transition. In bulk materials, this…

In the setting of continuum elasticity, phase transformations involving martensitic variants are modeled by a free energy density function that is non-convex in strain space. Here, we adopt an existing mathematical model in which we…

This article is concerned with the energy decay of an infinite memory wave equation with a logarithmic nonlinear term and a frictional damping term. The problem is formulated in a bounded domain in $\mathbb R^d$ ($d\ge3$) with a smooth…

We present a phase-field approximation of sharp-interface energies defined on partitions, designed for modeling grain boundaries in polycrystals. The independent variable takes values in the orthogonal group $\mathrm{O}(d)$ modulo a lattice…

Direct experimental characterization of indentation-induced martensitic microstructures in pseudoelastic shape memory alloys (SMAs) is not possible, and thus there is a lack of evidence and understanding regarding the microstructure pattern…

In this paper, we investigate three-phase eutectic growth during thin-film directional solidification of a model symmetric ternary eutectic alloy. In contrast to two-phase eutectics that have only a single possibility,…

Precursor phenomena observed prior to the martensite phase transition plays a critical role towards the understanding of important technological properties of shape memory and magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs). The premartensite (PM)…

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) exhibit hysteresis behaviors upon stress and temperature induced loadings. In this contribution, we focus on numerical simulations of microstructure evolution of cubic-to-tetragonal martensitic phase…

The martensitic start temperature ($M_{\text{s}}$) is a technologically fundamental characteristic of high-temperature shape memory alloys. We have recently shown [Phys. Rev. B 94, 224104 (2016)] that the two key features in describing the…

Functional behavior of NiTi shape memory alloys is restricted to temperatures below 150 {\deg}C. To shed light on the origin of the loss of functional properties of NiTi with increasing temperature, we have investigated stress induced…

Twin boundaries play an essential role in the use of magnetic shape memory alloy Ni-Mn-Ga as active material. Only if twin boundaries can be moved by an external magnetic field, high strain values of up to 10 % can be obtained. Therefore,…

This paper is devoted to show a couple of typicality results for weak solutions $v\in C^\theta$ of the Euler equations, in the case $\theta<1/3$. It is known that convex integration schemes produce wild weak solutions that exhibit anomalous…

First-principles-based materials screening is systematically performed to discover new combinations of chemical elements possibly making shape-memory alloys (SMAs). The B2, D03, and L21 crystal structures are considered as the parent…

The behavior of shape memory alloy (SMA) nanostructures is influenced by strain rate and temperature evolution during dynamic loading. The coupling between temperature, strain and strain rate effects is essential to capture inherent…

The premartensite phase of shape memory and magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) is believed to be a precursor state of the martensite phase with preserved austenite phase symmetry. The thermodynamic stability of the premartensite phase and…

Lattice structures have been widely used in various applications of additive manufacturing due to its superior physical properties. If modeled by triangular meshes, a lattice structure with huge number of struts would consume massive…
