TL;DR: In this article, the authors present experimental results and discuss thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the reaction of NiTi melts with graphite crucibles; a method is suggested to keep the carbon dissolution into the melt at a minimum.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show how conventional and advanced mechanical, chemical, and microstructural methods can be used to characterize cast single crystal Ni-base superalloy (SX) plates across multiple length scales.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hot isostatic pressing for binary NiTi shape memory alloys is proposed to produce powder metallurgical NiTi alloys with good structural and functional properties.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the crack loading and crack extension in pseudoelastic binary NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) miniature compact tension (CT) specimens with 50.7 at.% Ni (austenitic, pseudo-elastic) using infrared (IR) thermography during in situ loading and unloading.

TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction between NiTi melts and electro graphite crucibles during VIM processing was investigated and a physical view of the underlying transport processes and reactions was given and a phenomenological rate equation for the increase of carbon concentration during melting was provided.
