The kinetic relation for twin wall motion in NiMnGa
Eilon Faran,Doron Shilo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Peierls energy barrier and the crystal viscosity of NiMnGa shape memory alloys were measured as a function of a magnetically induced driving force, and the results demonstrated the validity of a general kinetic law that is typical of a viscous interface motion in a periodic potential.

Implications of twinning kinetics on the frequency response in NiMnGa actuators
Eilon Faran,Doron Shilo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Peierls energy barrier and the twin wall mobility were identified as two parameters that directly determine the dynamic response of NiMnGa actuators at frequencies above 10 Hz.

Experimental study of the reaction zone at boron nitride ceramic-Ti metal interface
TL;DR: In this article, solid state interaction between boron nitride (BN) and Ti metal was studied on BN plates immersed into a loose Ti powder and on BNs embedded into a dense Ti matrix.

Analysis of austenite-martensite phase boundary and twinned microstructure in shape memory alloys: The role of twinning disconnections
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of twinning disconnections, via which twins are tapered or broaden, and the additional energy due to the disconnections were considered, and a model that reproduces the variation in the twin lamella period was introduced.

Twin boundary structure and mobility
TL;DR: In this article, a generalized methodological approach for analyzing and modeling twin boundary dynamics with particular relevance for shape memory alloys is presented, which combines the topological model description of the interface structure at the atomistic/lattice scale with analytical analysis of energy barriers and mechanisms of motion that provide macro-scale kinetic laws for the twin boundary motion.
