Abstract

In this paper we present some results concerning plastic deformation applied to shape memory alloy and two most direct characterization methods for shape memory. We work with a copper based alloy- Cu Al13Ni 4. Over eight percent in aluminum the plastic deformation on the copper aluminum alloys is very difficult to do. Our purpose was to obtain the thin wires. The first material shape was cast ingots very fragile. We choose to work with a direct extrusion method because the high fragility of this material required a three dimensional stress compression scheme.
