Fine Particle Bombarding of Shape Memory Alloy was done to improve the functionality of the material with respect to tension and fatigue strength without compromizing the Shape Memory Effect. The results of our experiments show that the fatigue strength increased by 64% compared to the non-treated sample. More over, we were able to vary the martensite transformation stress with the enfluenced layer being upto a depth of 20μm. The result obtained are due to the thin enfluenced layer as the bulk material remain the same.
