Hello researchers
I want to model the elastoplastic behavior of NiTi shape memory alloy since I am simulating it for low velocity impact using ABAQUS.
For your information, I am using NiTi in the martensite phase at room temperature (25 degrees celsius). For my case, the Martensite finish temperature is around 40 degrees Celsius. I cannot use the inbuilt model in ABAQUS since it deals with the superelastic behaviour.
Can anyone suggest me the possible solution?
 
Abaqus has a plasticity model for superelasticity as well. Check the documentation chapter Materials --> Inelastic Mechanical Properties --> Plasticity Model for Superelastic Materials.
