In this study, we present a comprehensive study on isothermal stretching of a planar superelastic NiTi snake-like spring, a prospective versatile superelastic actuator element. We complement mechanical, electrical resistivity and x-ray diffraction methods with finite element simulations employing a progressive macroscopic constitutive model and reconstruct the spatial distribution in the most strained parts of the spring. We reveal that martensite tends to form in a localized manner there, which affects distribution of phases as well as strains along the spring. Results also exemplify the substantial influence of tension-compression asymmetry of the superelastic response to distribution of phases within cross-section of a bent structure.
