Abstract

The step-wise martensite to austenite reversible transformation (SMART) in shape memory alloys (SMA) is a martensitic thermoelastic transformation where a step-wise kinetics is induced by a partial cycling procedure within the hysteresis cycle (incomplete cycle on heating (ICH) procedure). The ICH procedure has been proved effective in inducing a reversible microstructural modification of the martensitic phase. Results till now obtained both on the SMART behaviour and on the effects of the ICH procedure are reviewed here: the hypotheses advanced till now are discussed to explain experimental evidences.
