Features: This book systematically introduces the basic concepts, performance indicators, and related fundamental research results of biomedical nickel-titanium alloys in terms of their preparation and processing, phase transformation behavior, physical and chemical properties, shape memory effect and superelasticity, and biocompatibility. It summarizes practical techniques and hands-on experience in surface treatment, mechanical processing, joining, and component shaping of biomedical nickel-titanium alloys. The book also discusses the medical devices applied in interventional medicine, surgery, dentistry, and other medical disciplines since the discovery of biomedical nickel-titanium alloys, including their working principles, animal experiments, and clinical application results.??This book is suitable for scientists and engineers engaged in or interested in biomedical materials and shape memory materials research and development, as well as for faculty and students of relevant disciplines in medical schools.
