We present a mathematical model describing the thermodynamic behavior of shape memory alloy wires, as well as a computational technique to solve the resulting system of partial differential equations. The model consists of continuum-level conservation equations based on a new construction of the Hel

## Abstract The present study deals with the creation of so‐called “recovery stresses” in SMA wires. Two approaches are developed. First, experiments are performed on nickel‐titanium wires with suitable transformation temperatures. The wires are stretched in the martensite state at ambient temperat
## Abstract The activation behaviour of Shape‐Memory‐Alloy actuators (SMA) (and more specifically their dynamic properties) is characterised by the rate of heating and cooling. This paper deals with the development, the validation and the application of a numerical model that simulates the activati
