Thermo-magnetic characterization of phase transitions in a Ni-Mn-In metamagnetic shape memory alloy

F. J. Romero, J. M. Martín-Olalla, J. S. Blázquez +4

The partially overlapped ferroelastic/martensitic and para-ferromagnetic phase transitions of a NiMnIn metamagnetic shape memory alloy have been studie…

Suppression of acoustic emission during superelastic tensile cycling of polycrystalline NiTi

Guillaume F. Nataf, Michela Romanini, Eduard Vives +4

We investigate acoustic emission (AE) that arises during the martensitic transition in a polycrystalline specimen of the prototypical superelastic/elastocaloric alloy NiTi…

Universality of power-law exponents by means of maximum likelihood estimation

Víctor Navas-Portella, Álvaro González, Isabel Serra +2

Power-law type distributions are extensively found when studying the behaviour of many complex systems. However, due to limitations in data acquisition, empirical datasets often on…

Experimental evidence of accelerated seismic release without critical failure in acoustic emissions of compressed nanoporous materials

Jordi Baró, Karin A. Dahmen, Jörn Davidsen +5

The total energy of acoustic emission (AE) events in externally stressed materials diverges when approaching macroscopic failure. Numerical and conceptual models explain this accel…

Increasing power-law range in avalanche amplitude and energy distributions

Víctor Navas-Portella, Isabel Serra, Álvaro Corral +1

Power-law type probability density functions spanning several orders of magnitude are found for different avalanche properties. We propose a methodology to overcome empirical const…

Avalanches and force drops in displacement-driven compression of porous glasses

Víctor Navas-Portella, Álvaro Corral, Eduard Vives

Similarities between force-driven compression experiments of porous materials and earthquakes have been recently proposed. In this manuscript, we measure the acoustic emission duri…
