Corrosion performance of medical grade NiTi after laser processing
Michael, Andrew; Pequegnat, Andrew; Wang, J.; Zhou, Y. Norman; Khan, M. I. (Elsevier, 2017-09-15)Laser processing of shape memory alloys (SMAs) has great potential to enable the multi-functionality required for complex applications. Achieving this improved functionality often requires laser processing of the SMA's ... -
Deconvolution of overlapping peaks from differential scanning calorimetry analysis for multi-phase NiTi alloys
Michael, Andrew; Zhou, Y. Norman; Yavuz, Mustafa; Khan, Mohammad Ibraheem (Elsevier, 2018-07-10)An adaptive function capable of fitting the curve of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) data for any NiTi phase transformation peak has been developed. A novel methodology was applied in conjunction with this new ... -
Effects of post-processing on the thermomechanical fatigue properties of laser modified NiTi
Panton, Boyd; Michael, Andrew; Zhou, Y. Norman; Khan, Mohammad Ibraheem (Elsevier, 2019-01-01)The multifunctional capabilities needed for advanced shape memory alloys (SMA) actuators has been shown to be achievable by locally tuning the properties through laser processing. Before the wide-spread use of these SMAs ...
