A preliminary study was conducted to demonstrate the usefulness of the combined technique of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and mechanical testing for the shape memory metals of 54NiTi and 53NiTiCo(3%) alloys. The DSC technique was used to measure precise transformation temperatures and the amount of thermal energy required for the corresponding phase transformation. The degree of plastic deformation by bending and the effect of alloying (such as Co) were studied with combined DSC and mechanical property measurements.
