Shape memory effect characterization of modified beta-brass alloys
shapememoryeffec00bril.pdf (3.014Mb)Abstract
Modified beta-brass alloys are tested at various temperatures to
investigate the pseudoelastic and memory properties of the alloys. The
effects of thermomechanical cycling, and prestrain on the beta-brass
alloys are determined. A stress-strain relationship for the alloys at
various test temperatures is developed.
