One dimensional modeling of the thermoelastic behavior of shape memory alloys

Many facets of the behavior of shape memory alloys have enormously attracted scientists and researchers, studying and modeling their behavior are still problematic. It is in this context that several models have been developed using a lot of approaches ranging from microscopic to macroscopic scale. In this paper we have considered the superthermal effect (thermoelastic) of shape memory alloys and we have adopted a macroscopic approach. The model takes in account only macroscopic observations, it was built basing on thermodynamic laws of thermodynamics and simple assumptions in order to simplify as much as possible its use in engineering without losing accuracy. To validate the model, we have simulated numerically the response and compared it to experimental data
