Based on the dual-nonlinear magneto-thermal effects, geometric nonlinear factors are introduced through Kirchhoff–Love theory. Combining thermoelasticity and magnetic-solid coupling theories, the magnetic-thermoelastic coupling dynamical model is established by Hamilton’s principle. The Galerkin truncation is used to obtain discrete equations, and the amplitude–frequency relationship and stability criterion are derived from Krylov–Bogoliubov–Mitropolski method and Lyapunov stability theory.

Firstly, a new constitutive model which is able to reproduce the strain rate and grain size dependence of stress–strain responses is proposed. The proposed model incorporates a transformation function similar to the Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman potential and takes the presence of microvoids and void growth into account. Secondly, the mechanisms of martensitic transformation, the microstructure evolution during deformation and the superelastic responses at different strain rates and porosity levels are revealed at the atomic level. The simulated results by molecular dynamics demonstrate that the superelasticity of polycrystalline NiTi exhibits a strong dependence on the grain size, the volume fraction of microvoids and the strain rate. The transformation flow stress and dissipation energy density are found to be sensitive to the strain rate and the porosity level; the gradually decreasing grain size exerts an inhibitory influence on the stress-induced martensitic forward and reverse transformation. Higher strain rate and lower porosity have the ability to increase the critical transformation stress and the overall stress level.
