An Overview of Applications of the Mesomechanical Approach to Shape Memory Phenomena — Completed by a New Application to Two-way Shape Memory

Abstract

An overview of the wide possibilities of applications of the author's mesomechanical concept to shape memory (SM) phenomena is presented, and a new application worked out for modeling the two-way SM is framed in this concept. Explanation of the common background of the different methods of training the two-way SM is presented. It is demonstrated, how and why, specific kinds of deformation lead to improvement or impairment of the two-way SM.
