AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The internal friction phenomenon in metallic and polymeric shape memory materials is analyzed. The experimental results permit validation of a theoretical model which describes qualitatively the temperature dependence of the internal friction for the inves ...
On application of heat, shape memory polymers (SMPs) are able to revert to a primary shape from a secondary shape induced by mechanical deformation. It may be desirable to induce shape recovery at controlled rates under quasi-isothermal conditions, e. g. i ...

The Two-Way Shape Memory Effect (TWSME) has been widely studied in the literature. However, little attention has been paid about the out-of-equilibrium behavior of the TWSME. This paper reports some experiments, which were performed on specimens, previousl ...
The biomedical industry has an increasing demand for dissimilar metal joining processes, which are used for complex configuration designs, such as guidewires and other intravascular interventional devices. Their production becomes more and more challenging ...
We present the development of a low-temperature liquid composite moulding cure schedule that is compatible with the fabrication of shape memory alloy (SMA)–epoxy composite materials. With this process, the SMA wires do not need to be maintained in place wi ...
We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. The addition of SMA wires shows improvements of healed peak fracture loads by up to a factor of 1.6, approaching the performance of the virgin material. ...
The feasibility of using a low temperature liquid composite molding technique to produce smart composites with embedded shape memory alloys was investigated. The epoxy system of EPON 828 resin and DETA hardener was evaluated, with embedded NiTiCu shape mem ...
We report the first measurements of self-healing polymers with embedded shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. Improvements of healed peak loads by up to a factor of two are observed, approaching the performance of the virgin material. Moreover, the repairs can b ...
At present, little is known about the response of the martensitic phase in TiNi alloys to heavy ion irradiation. However, previous studies [2,3] of ion and electron irradiation show that these alloys are highly susceptible to disorder and amorphization at ...
Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) have been used in sculptures for quite some time. But only very few of these sculptures have gone on to earn wide recognition, mainly because the working conditions of the SMA must be carefully respected when sculptures are made. ...
