The implementation of new materials for light-weighting purposes in the automotive industry has often been hindered due to the low ductility of these materials, as well as inadequate empirical knowledge about their fracture behavior and inadequate material modeling techniques. T…

Development and characterization of Shape Memory alloys (SMAs) has taken big steps over half a century in understanding the role of alloying components, processing of alloys and microstructural optimization to real life engineering application. This has aided in the growth of ap…
