Abstract:
This work details an investigation into the production of porous shape memory alloys (SMAs) via hot isostatic press (HIP) from prealloyed powders. HIPing is one of three main methods for producing porous SMAs, the other two are conventional sintering and selfpropagating hightemperature synthesis (SHS). Conventional sintering is characterized by its long processing time at near atmospheric pressure and samples made this way are limited in porosity range. The SHS method consists of preloading a chamber with elemental powders and then initiating an explosion at one end, which then propagates thro

Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are metal alloys which are capable of changing their crystallographic structure as a result of externally applied mechanical or thermal loading.

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) of Additive Manufacturing is an attractive fabrication method that employs CAD data to selectively melt the metal powder layer by layer via a laser beam and produce a 3D part.

The combination of SLM fabrication advantages with the unique properties of NiTi alloys, such as shape memory effect, superelasticity, high ductility, work output, corrosion, biocompatibility, etc. makes SLM NiTi alloys extremely promising fo

The material changes from one phase to another under various conditions of thermal and/or mechanical loading. Under certai

Abstract:
This thesis aimed to develop a reproducible process for batch-fabricating microdevices required for MEMS and medical applications, such as micro actuators and stents, from heat-sensitive NiTi shape memory materials. Electrochemical micromachining was chosen to carry out this work. This is a non-traditional machining process involving photoresist processing and electrolytic etching which has received much attention recently for the processing of thin films. The electrolyte used was a non-aqueous solution of 5% sulphuric acid in methanol. The optimum parameters for the photoresist processing wer
