On the nucleation and propagation of phase transformation fronts in a NiTi alloy
John A. Shaw,Stelios Kyriakides +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the deformation history of NiTi was established by photographically recording surface changes of a brittle coating as austenite-martensite phase transition fronts traverse the specimen.

Synthesis and mechanical behavior of nanostructured materials via cryomilling
David Witkin,Enrique J. Lavernia +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the microstructural evolution during cryomilling, consolidation and processing, the thermal stability of the microstructure, and mechanical properties of consolidated materials are compared to those results for powders and consolidated materials generated by mechanical alloying, milling at ambient temperatures and other means to produce fine grained materials.

Microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties and biocompatibility of Mg-Zn-Mn alloys for biomedical application
TL;DR: In this article, a Mg-Zn-Mn magnesium alloy was developed for biomedical application due to the good biocompatibility of Zn and Mn elements, and it was suggested that surface modification have to be adopted to improve the blood compatibility of the magnesium alloy.
