✦ Synopsis
The present paper deals with recovery strain and fatigue life of Ti 49.8 Ni 50.2 shape memory alloy (SMA) wire on thermo-mechanical cycling (TMC). Recovery strain of SMA wire with several heat treatments shows different changes when being subjected to TMC at a series of constant loads. These changes are significant in the initial 200 cycles and recovery strain tends to reach a steady state in the further cycling. The effect of heat treatment on the fatigue life is analyzed, the SMA wire with shorter heat treatment exhibits lower fatigue life while higher recovery strain. Transformation temperatures of SMA wire on TMC is investigated by electrical resistance measurements. It was found that both annealing time and TMC has obvious influence on transformation behavior.

## Abstract Fe‐based shape memory alloys are supposed to be an interesting and cost‐effective alternative to NiTi‐based alloys. In this work, the thermo‐mechanical behavior of a novel Fe–Mn–Si–Cr–Ni–VC shape memory alloy produced using standard air‐casting facilities is characterized as well as in
In the binary system Ni-Ir it is known that Ni and Ir form a complete solid solution over the entire composition range. Starting from this, Ni 48.5-x Ti 51.5 Ir x alloys with x = 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 at.% and a Ni 49.5 Ti 48 Ir 2.5 alloy have been prepared by arc melting in an argon atmosphere in order
