摘 要:In this work,the in situ optical observation was carried out in complete and incomplete transformation cycles of Ni-Ti alloys.In complete transformation cycles,initial martensite plates nucleate randomly in austenite.However,in a partial transformation cycle,the existing martensite plates have an influence on guiding the formation of subsequent martensite plates.And the randomness decreases with the decrease in transformation volume involved in the partial cycle.It is suggested that the randomness of transformations contributes to the introduction of defects,and the irreversibility associates with transformation randomness of martensite plates.For instance,a higher randomness in transformations could introduce more defects and more obvious irreversibility.On the other hand,defects generated in thermoelastic martensitic transformation are responsible for the hysteresis of transformations.Therefore,the randomness of transformations also contributes to the transformation hysteresis.These results could help further understanding on some martensitic transformation phenomena of shape memory alloys,such as the nonlinear and history-dependent characteristic.
