Module shape_memory 

Shape memory alloy (SMA) materials — Nitinol, Cu-Zn-Al, and related alloys.

Provides constitutive models for shape memory alloys based on the Brinson–Liang–Rogers thermomechanical framework, Clausius-Clapeyron thermoelastic martensite theory, pseudoelastic loading/unloading, and two-way shape memory effect.
