Abstract: | The paper studies the rotational motion of a rigid mass suspended by a shape memory wire. The wire represents a torsional
spring, which causes the mass to oscillate. At the same time, however, the wire induces damping through the hysteretic phase
transitions that it undergoes during the oscillation. Due to the strong temperature dependence of the wire's thermomechanical
properties, a complex behavior can be observed. The oscillation is shown to differ substantially depending on whether the
wire is quasiplastic (low temperature) or pseudoelastic (high temperature). This provides a mechanism for an active control
of the system. By an appropriate heating strategy, it is possible to compensate for the damping, and the oscillation can thus
be stabilized.
