Abstract

In this study the superelastic behavior of porous shape memory alloys has been simulated in a finite element procedure. The Boyd and Lagoudas plasticity like phenomenological model (Lecce and Concilio in Shape memory alloy engineering: for aerospace, structural and biomedical application, Elsevier, Oxford, 2016) has been developed by incorporating the pore volume fraction parameter to describe the behavior of porous shape memory alloys. Accordingly, to homogenize the porous media, Young’s modulus and the phase transformation function have been defined as functions of pore volume fraction. Furthermore, for random distribution of pores, Bernoulli process has been implemented. A numerical procedure was proposed and executed by a finite element code based on the proposed constitutive model. In finite element models, each pore was defined as a negligible stiffness element. Simulations show that the proposed model could precisely simulate the superelastic behavior of porous SMAs under tensile loading.
