This paper describes a novel approach to modeling hysteresis using a Hysteretic Recurrent Neural Network (HRNN). The HRNN utilizes weighted recurrent neurons, each composed of conjoined sigmoid activation functions to capture the directional dependencies typical of hysteretic smart materials (piezoelectrics, ferromagnetic, shape memory alloys, etc.) Network weights are included on the output layer to facilitate training and provide statistical model information such as phase fraction probabilities. This paper demonstrates HRNN-based modeling of two- and three-phase transformations in hysteretic materials (shape memory alloys) with experimental validation. A two-phase network is constructed to model the displacement characteristics of a shape memory alloy (SMA) wire under constant stress. To capture the more general thermo-mechanical behavior of SMAs, a three-phase HRNN model (which accounts for detwinned Martensite, twinned Martensite, and Austensite phases) is developed and experimentally validated. The HRNN modeling approach described in this paper readily lends itself to other hysteretic materials and may be used for developing real-time control algorithms.

A three-phase constitutive model for TiNiNb shape memory alloys (SMAs) is proposed based on the fact that TiNiNb SMAs are dynamically composed of austenite, martensite and -Nb phases. In the considered ranges of stress and temperature, the behaviors of austenite, martensite and -Nb phases are assumed to be elastoplastic, and the behavior of an SMA is regarded as the dynamic combination of the individual behavior of each phase. Then a macroscopic constitutive description for TiNiNb SMAs is obtained by the conventional theory of plasticity, the theory of mixture, the theory of inclusion, and the description of phase transition by Tanaka. The method for determination of the material parameters is given. This constitutive model can describe the main characteristics of SMAs, such as ferrcelasticity, pseudoelasticity and shape memory effect.

The evolutions of microstructure and phase transformation behavior of Cu-Al-Fe-Nb/Ta high-temperature shape memory alloys under the quenched and aged states were investigated in this study, including Cu-10wt.% Al-6wt.% Fe, Cu-10wt.% Al-4wt.% Fe-2wt.% Nb and Cu-10wt.% Al-4wt.% Fe-2wt.% Ta three types alloys. The obtained results show that after quenching, Cu-10wt.% Al-6wt.% Fe alloy exhibits two-phase microstructure of β′1 martensite + Fe (Al,Cu) phase; Cu-10wt.% Al-4wt.% Fe-2wt.% Nb alloy also has two-phase microstructure of (β′1 + γ′1 martensites) + Nb (Fe,Al,Cu)2 phase; Cu-10wt.% Al-4wt.% Fe-2wt.% Ta alloy is consisted of three-phase of (β′1 + γ′1 martensites) + Fe (Al,Cu,Ta) + Ta2(Al,Cu,Fe)3 phases. However, α (Cu) phase precipitates after aging for three alloys; and Fe (Al,Cu,Nb) phase is also present in Cu-10wt.% Al-4wt.% Fe-2wt.% Nb alloy. All the studied alloys exhibit complicated martensitic transformation behaviors resulted from the existence of two types martensites (β′1 and γ′1).

Shape Memory Alloys are increasingly being used in aeronautic [1], vibration control and seismic applications [2–6]. These applications require models that faithfully represent the full thermomechanical response of SMA wires but which at the same time are simple and fast to implement. In this paper we present a model for the superelastic behavior of Shape Memory Alloys that combines a thermodynamical framework with a Preisach model. This approach allows us to easily account for both stress and strain controlled responses as well as changes in termperature in a simple and straightforward way.

The paper describes the development of distributed-element models for non-linear hysteresis in materials and structures. The physical model is based on an approach that views the system as comprising a series of ideal elastoplastic elements. Parameter identification, numerical simulation and inversion of the model through the application of the Preisach model for hysteresis are discussed. Experimentally obtained data using Nitinol are compared with the model prediction, thus establishing the effectiveness of distributed-element Preisach elements for predicting complex hysteresis effects including high-order hysteresis transition curves.
