Abstract
A detailed morphology of the twinned-to-detwinned interface in microstructure of 2H-martensite phase of the Cu–Al–Ni shape memory alloy is observed by optical methods (optical microscopy, white-light interferometry). Based on these observations, a finite element model of the transition layer is constructed and applied to calculate the elastic stress distribution inside the observed microstructure. The results show that the real micromorphology does not correspond to the minimum of the sum of the elastic and surface energy, and that the maxima of the stress field necessary for the existence of this morphology are comparable to the elasticity limits of the 2H-martensite.
