Abstract
Damping behavior of Ti50.1Ni49.9 shape memory alloy during reverse martensitic transformation has been investigated by dynamic mechanical analyzer in a dual-cantilever mode. With the increase of strain amplitude, internal friction (IF) of the alloy increases in martensite and austenite states while decreases in transformation region. Based on the regularity of IF attenuation in isothermal condition, IFTr and (IFPT+ IFI) are decomposed from the strain amplitude dependent IF in transformation region. For practical application of shape memory alloys as a damping material, it is significant to evaluate the damping capacity by eliminating the influence of IFTr and consider its time independent real IF (IFPT+ IFI).
