We explore the possibilities and limitations of using a coherent second phase to engineer the thermo-mechanical properties of a martensitic alloy by modifying the underlying free energy landscape that controls the transformation. We use…
Nanoprecipitates form during nucleation of multiphase equilibria in phase segregating multicomponent systems. In spite of their ubiquity, their size-dependent physical chemistry, in particular at the boundary between phases with…
The shape memory behavior of a NiTi nanoparticle is analyzed by molecular dynamics simulations. After a detailed description of the equilibrium structures of the used model potential, the multi variant martensitic ground state, which…
We use phase field simulations to study composites made of two different ferroelastics (e.g., two types of martensite). The deformation of one material due to a phase transformation can elastically affect the other constituent and induce it…
We use the phase-field method to study the martensitic transformation at the nanoscale. For nanosystems such as nanowires and nanograins embedded in a stiff matrix, the geometric constraints and boundary conditions have an impact on…
Changes in temperature or stress state may induce reversible B2$\leftrightarrow$(R)$\leftrightarrow$ B19' martensitic transformations and associated shape memory effects in close-to-stoichiometric nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloys. Recent…
The identification and use of reversible Martensitic transformations, typically described as shape memory transformations, as a new class of solid-solid phase change material is experimentally demonstrated here for the first time. To prove…
The reverse martensitic ("austenitic") transformation upon heating of equiatomic nickel-titanium nanoparticles with diameters between 4 and 17 nm is analyzed by means of molecular-dynamics simulations with a semi-empirical model potential.…
Precipitation hardening, which relies on a high density of intermetallic precipitates, is a commonly utilized technique for strengthening structural alloys. Structural alloys are commonly strengthened through a high density of small size…
Modulated martensites play an important role in magnetic shape memory alloys, because all functional properties are closely connected to the twin microstructure and the phase boundary. The nature of the modulated martensites is still…
Stress-induced martensitic transformations enable metastable alloys to exhibit enhanced strain hardening capacity, leading to improved formability and toughness. As is well-known from transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) steels,…

The excellent mechanical properties of the Ni-based superalloy IN718 mainly result from coherent $\gamma''$ precipitates. Due to a strongly anisotropic lattice misfit between the matrix and the precipitate phase, the particles exhibit…
Three sets of Co-Ni-Ga alloy nanoparticles have been synthesized by a template-free chemical route. Structural, morphological, shape memory, and magnetic properties of room temperature martensite (M) phase, dual (M + secondary $\gamma$)…
While most phase transformations, e.g. ferroelectric or ferromagnetic, can be first or second order depending on external applied fields, martensitic transformations in metallic alloys are nearly universally first order. We demonstrate that…
Superelastic shape-memory alloys (SMAs) are unique smart materials with a considerable energy dissipation potential for dynamic loadings with varying strain-rates. The energy dissipation depends on the latent heat generated by the…
To study martensitic phase transformation we use a micromechanical model based on statistical mechanics. Employing lattice Monte-Carlo simulations and realistic material properties for shape-memory alloys (SMA), we investigate the combined…
Besides permitting an accurate determination of the ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic phase transition temperature and the characteristic temperatures for the beginning and end of the growth of martensite (austenite) phase at the expense of…
The martensitic transformation in NiTi-based Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) provides a basis for shape memory effect and superelasticity, thereby enabling applications requiring solid-state actuation and large recoverable shape changes upon…
Cobalt-based alloys with {\gamma}/{\gamma}' microstructures have the potential to become the next generation of superalloys, but alloy compositions and processing steps must be optimized to improve coarsening, creep, and rafting behavior.…
