We develop a constitutive model which reproduces the superelastic behavior of shape-memory alloys (SMA) at finite strains. For an isothermal case, we discuss in detail the numerical implementation within a finite element scheme as well as the form of the algorithmically consistent tangent. To assess the viability of the approach, we simulate the response of some simple SMA typical structures (uniaxial test, four-point bending test) as well as an application with possibly a very high impact in different medical fields.
