Abstract
Aging effect on martensitic transformation in Cu83-XAl17MnX shape memory alloys (X = 10,12,14,16 and 18) have been investigated by electrical resistivity (ER) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) measurements. In Cu71Al17Mn12 aged at 373 K for 0.6 ks, we found that martensitic transformation occurred at around 100K in ER measurement. It was also confirmed that the transformation temperatures increased with aging temperature and time. In addition, an enthalpy of reverse transformation increased with aging temperature, but it exhibited no systematic dependence on the aging time. The enthalpy of reverse transformation in Cu71Al17Mn12 alloy aged at 473K for 0.6ks (As = 200 K), was estimated to be about 150 J/mol by DSC measurements, which is nearly equal to that in Cu-Al-Mn alloy transformed at around room temperature.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
