Published: May 2024

Abstract
Despite the evident existence of market demand and great efforts in alloy development and processing, non-binary NiTi alloys struggle to exploit their full potential and to satisfy the high expectations from industry. Two exemplary fields of research are low-hysteresis (LH-SMA) and high temperature shape memory alloys (HT-SMA), in which many alloy solutions with promising results were proposed in the last decades, but almost none was commercialized on an industrially relevant scale. The reasons for the limited success might be manifold: Material inherent challenges like creating workable, reliable and performing alloys, cost of setting-up a stable process, trust in new technology, communication between material designer and potential end-user, lack of material provider and further drawbacks obstacle the way to commercialization. Evidentially, existing LH-SMA and HT-SMA solutions suffer a lack of trust from industries to achieve commercial success. Therefore, besides developing material solutions, new ways need to be found to achieve and demonstrate the full potential of the most promising alloys and systems. The here presented research work consists of an assessment of the main obstacles in designing and preparing high-performing ternary and quaternary alloys. The scope is to answer what could be the ideal low hysteresis and high temperature shape memory alloys for industrial commercialization, what are the potentials and limits of commonly used theories and models in material design? What could be suitable demonstrators, experiments and prototypes of simple configurations from a technical point of view in order to convince potential end-users of such novel materials, how could they to be prepared and benchmarked? To be more persuasive, the demonstrator should constitute of an application relevant shape and could be prepared by non-conventional processes if it supports the full exploitation of the material advantages.
Reduction of Mechanical Anisotropy in Nitinol Thin Sheets
Authors: Yin Weimin , Lafond Rich 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Nitinol sheets develop various crystallographic textures during the rolling process. The crystallographic texture results in orientation-dependent mechanical response variability, such as plateau stress, plateau strain and residual strain. These anisotropic mechanical responses may cause a non-uniformity of deformation in engineering components and increase a risk of structure failure and material damage, particularly for those products involving large crimping strain in medical device fabrication.

Abstract
Nitinol staples are in forefront of internal fixation devices. The application of staples in comparison with other fixation methods such as plates, screws or pins has benefits of being less invasive and simpler. There is a huge potential of using Nitinol in the orthopedic field, but so far only limited research done on material properties of Nitinol in combination with fatigue life of Nitinol staples. Earlier work has shown significant impact of grain size on fatigue life of Nitinol sheet. The aim of this study was a comparative investigation on the fatigue behavior of semi-finished Nitinol flat continuous rolled sheets with staple shaped samples and optimization of Nitinol sheet for the use in the biomedical implant under product-related conditions. Samples based on a generic staple design used in the internal fixation of the musculoskeletal system and four-point bend test methods were used to conduct this study. Monotonic force-displacement tests at different maximum force conditions were conducted, to understand the relationship between microstructure in Nitinol sheets and fatigue life. To get a better understanding of these correlations is primary objective of this investigation.
Correlation between Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Bend Free Recovery Test Methods when Evaluating Nitinol Wire Austenite Finish Transformation Temperature
Authors: Nagel Emily , Dickenson Roger , Moloney Marie , Roach Lee , Bollam Sahit 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
There are two primary test methods used in industry to evaluate nitinol phase transformations, bend free recovery (BFR) per ASTM F2082 and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) per ASTM F2004. Both methods are widely used, but the correlation between the method outputs for Austenite Finish (Af) temperature is not fully characterized. This can be challenging when different methods are specified or preferred by suppliers, customers, and manufacturers. DSC is a method that measures the change in energy as a function of temperature; it is a strictly thermal method. Whereas BFR monitors the displacement of a sample as temperature increases. There is a lack of published data discussing how different wire processing inputs impact the correlation between these two outputs.
Laser Straight Annealing of HT-SMA Thin Wires

Abstract
In recent years, the interest in shape memory alloys with high transformation temperatures (HTSMA) has significantly increased not only in the academic sphere, but also due to a market-push, especially from aerospace, automotive, and robotics. However, a real break-through has not been achieved yet because of several problems: Lower chemistry control than in NiTi alloys, instability of martensite, decomposition of the matrix phase, brittleness, oxidation, etc. Despite those challenges, steady progress has been made on specific systems and distinct thermo-mechanical treatments have been elaborated to reach promising HT-SMA behavior. Among several systems, Ni-Ti-Hf-Nb emerged as particular promising due to superior mechanical properties of its alloys compared to those of the ternary Ni-Ti-Hf system. In particular, the ductility of Ni-Ti-Hf increases significantly by adding Nb, allowing for formation of a soft eutectic network composed of shape memory matrix phase and a not transforming β-Nb phase at the grain boundaries. Recently, it was demonstrated that by this alloying approach, it is possible to obtain fine wires using conventional drawing techniques, increasing the opportunities for a successful industrial commercialization. In this work, Laser technology was explored for straight annealing of HT-SMA wires and promoting shape memory behavior. The functional performances of laser treated wires were assessed through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), microstructure analysis, tensile tests and thermal cycling under constant load. Laser parameters were optimized for tailoring transformation properties in order to get a stable transformation at high temperatures, the results were compared to those ones of furnace annealed wires.

Published: May 2024

IntroductionIrritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a highly prevalent functional gastrointestinal disease that is commonly associated with psychological comorbidities and maladaptive thought patterns. Previous studies report psychological therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and gut-directed therapy (GDP) improve IBS symptom management and quality of life. This review seeks to understand the effectiveness of various psychotherapies across delivery methods for patients with irritable bowel syndrome.MethodsA scoping literature review of PubMed articles highlighting psychological and stress reduction treatments for IBS was conducted. 120 studies were included in the title and abstract screening. 32 studies were selected for full text review. Primary and secondary research studies that investigated the benefit of psychological therapies focusing on stress reduction and cognitive therapies for patients with gastrointestinal condition’s symptom relief met inclusion criteria for the review. 12 studies were selected for inclusion.ResultsAll 12 reviewed studies reported statistically significant improvements in IBS symptoms with psychological therapies. 8 studies also addressed quality of life and reported statistically significant improvement in intervention groups. 3 studies demonstrated persistent improvement after 12 months. 2 studies compared different types of psychotherapies and reported improvements compared to control groups but no significant differences between psychotherapies. 6 studies that compared face to face therapy with minimal contact or telephone therapy showed no difference in clinical outcomes.DiscussionPsychological therapies demonstrate reported statistically significant improvements in IBS symptoms and patient quality of life with no reported statistically significant difference across forms of healthcare delivery. Most improvements reportedly persist long-term. Further research with a broader demographic base is needed to assess the economic costs of psychological therapies and their implications for underserved communities.

IntroductionIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) often triggers oxidative stress through reactive oxygen species (ROS). Transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) plays a pivotal role in regulating oxidative stress and inflammation across various diseases. 5Z-7-Oxozeaenol (OZ), a specific inhibitor of TAK1, has exhibited therapeutic effects in various conditions. However, the impact of OZ following ICH and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. This study aimed to explore the possible role of OZ in ICH and its underlying mechanisms by inhibiting oxidative stress-mediated pyroptosis. MethodsAdult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to an ICH model, followed by treatment with OZ. Neurobehavioral function, blood-brain barrier integrity, neuronal pyroptosis, and oxidative stress markers were assessed using various techniques including behavioral tests, immunofluorescence staining, western blotting, transmission electron microscopy, and biochemical assays.ResultsOur study revealed that OZ administration significantly inhibited phosphorylated TAK1 expression post-ICH. Furthermore, TAK1 blockade by OZ attenuated blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, neuroinflammation, and oxidative damage while enhancing neurobehavioral function. Mechanistically, OZ administration markedly reduced ROS production and oxidative stress by facilitating nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) nuclear translocation. This was accompanied by a subsequent suppression of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) activation-mediated inflammatory cascade and neuronal pyroptosis. DiscussionOur findings highlight that OZ alleviates brain injury and oxidative stress-mediated pyroptosis via the NRF2 pathway. Inhibition of TAK1 emerges as a promising approach for managing ICH.
