Abstract

The shape memory behaviors and the hysteresis under load in a Ti50Ni33.5Cu12.5Pd4 alloy with near-zero thermal hysteresis have been investigated. There exists a deviation between the loaded and stress-free hysteresises. The recoverable strain increases with increasing the applied strain for the present alloy. The plastic strain can be detected when the applied strain is over 3%. The shape memory effect and hysteresis show excellent stability during the thermal cycling when the external stress is applied, which should be attributed to the extreme difficulty of dislocation introduction.
