Abstract
The response of a super-elastic NiTi alloy to mechanical deformation has been investigated in tension and compression at strain rates of 10−3 and 103 s−1. The effect of loading direction has been understood through the nature of the phase transformation in the material, whilst comparison of quasi-static experiments at elevated temperatures to the response of the material at high strain rates provides better understanding of the importance of adiabatic heating in high strain rate loading.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
