Abstract

Classically a master curve as Dorn's equation is applied for elucidating stationary creep behaviour within high temperature range (T > 0.6 Tm). As the diffusion of both 63Ni and 44Ti have been measured in an equiatomic NiTi, an effective choice of creep-relevant diffusion coefficient D may be possible. Moreover, creep measurements in the same temperature range performed can be found in the literature. The correlation does not permit to establish precisely what D coefficient to integrate in the Dorn's equation.
