✦ Synopsis
This paper presents a multi-dimensional thermomechanical constitutive model for shape memory alloys (SMAs). This constitutive relation is based upon a combination of both micromechanics and macromechanics. The martensite fraction is introduced as a variable in this model to reflect the martensitic transformation that determines the unique characteristics of shape memory alloys. This constitutive relation can be used to study the complex behavior associated with 2-D and 3-D SMA structures. A simple example using this constitutive model is also presented, which reveals a new and interesting phenomenon of 3-D SMA structures.

In this work, we develop a non-local and thermo-mechanically-coupled constitutive model for polycrystalline shape-memory alloys (SMAs) capable of undergoing austenite $ martensite phase transformations. The theory is developed in the isotropic metal-plasticity setting using fundamental thermodynamic
