Abstract
The effect of temperature and direction of preliminary torsion in the austenitic state on the degree of strain recovery upon heating of a TiNi alloy has been investigated. It is shown that an increase in the preliminary deformation temperature from 500 to 700 K leads to an increase in the degree of shape recovery upon heating of the material studied. In particular, a 20% strain at a temperature of 500 K decreases the recovery coefficient by 20%, whereas the same preliminary strain at 700 K deteriorates the shape recovery by only 4%. It is established that, applying preliminary torsion in the austenitic and martensitic states in opposite directions, one can obtain an increase in the shape memory strain with an increase in the preliminary plastic strain. Thus, at some plastic strains (λpl > 10%), the strain recovered upon heating may even exceed the strain set in the martensitic state.
