Abstract:
      Simulation to thermo-mechanical behavior of shape memory alloy, based on the plastic flow theory and martensitic transformation kinetics, is presented in this paper. The numerical examples show that the present constitutive model is in agreement with the experimental results, and can be developed easily. The finite element analysis is also carried out.
