Abstract

The effect of high speed high pressure torsion (HS-HPT) was studied in NiTi and FeMnSiCr SMAs, by comparison. Severe plastic deformation was performed in austenite state for both types of alloys. The alloys subjected to HS-HPT, reduced their grain size due to microstructure fragmentation by compression and torsion. The active elements were achieved being able to support variable ranges of processing parameters like force, pressure, rotation speed and time of torsion. The evolution of microstructural refinement in the samples subjected to different deformation by HS-HPT, were studied by optical and scanning electron microscopy observation and the thermal effect was reveled using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
