Abstract
In reply to the comments of Mohamed and Banks, we outline the conditions under which a Ni-Ti shape-memory element operates in a solid-state engine. The expression for the energy output of this element, which was used in the original paper, is derived here, and further aspects of the efficiency formula for this engine are explained.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
