NiTi alloy exhibits superior superelastic properties but its wide application is limited by its poor workability. In this study, Ni-rich NiTi wire was used as the feedstock and a wall-shaped NiTi component with height of 130mm was deposited on Ti substrate by cold metal transfer (CMT) based wire...

Based on the monitoring data from 13 typical monitoring sites along the Qinghai–Tibet Highway, the degradation characteristics of the permafrost under asphalt pavement and natural ground surface were analyzed with considerations of climate warming and engineering disturbance. Results indicated...
