The sequences of the thermally induced martensitic and intermartensitic L21→10M→14M→L10 and L10→14M→10M→L21 transformations are observed in Ni50.6Mn28.5Ga20.9 single crystal on the cooling and heating branches of a thermal cycle. The modes of stress-induced intervariant transitions in the 10M, 14M, and L10 martensites are investigated on the basis of matrix approach, and the stresses of orientation-variants’ rearrangements are determined as a function of martensite structure, transition mode, and temperature. The twinning stress decreases along the L10, 14M, and 10M martensites with a decrease of period of a nanotwinned structure.
Key words: shape-memory alloys, Ni2MnGa, martensitic transformation, orientation variant, intervariant transition, twinning stress.
