Thermally induced martensitic transformations in Cu-based shape memory alloy microwires

Prior studies on shape memory alloys have identified size effects on the superelastic, i.e., stress-induced, hysteresis of martensitic transformations. However, literature on thermally induced transformations and size effects upon stored elastic energy is rather limited. In this work, a complementar...
