Thermomechanical analysis (TMA) is a thermal analysis technique that measures dimensional changes at a micrometer scale, such as deformation, in a material’s properties against time or temperature ...

Can the Thermal Properties of Shape Memory Alloys be adjusted for Heating and Cooling Applications? Thermal parameters, especially thermal expansion, play a key role in the performance of shape memory ...

Part one of this series, published in the January 2007 issue, discussed how to use linear superposition in the steady-state analysis of multiple heat-source systems. However, linear superposition also ...
