It is a pleasure to announce that, on 17.3.2023, two project researchers, P. Veřtát and M. Rameš successfully defended their doctoral thesis: P. Veřtát, Characterisation of Martensitic Phases in Ni-Mi-Ga-based…
Interesting microscopic observations of martensite obtained recently (10M martensite in Ni-Mn-Ga): Branching of martensite bands near austenite-martensite interface (austenite is violet region on the right), upon heating.
The martensite still surprises us with its unexpected beauty. The above figure shows a specific microstructure with a mixture of NM and 14M martensite bands at -196°C (DIC/Nomarski contrast in…
It turns out that the study of martensitic transformation can bring also aesthetically significant deeds. The best photo in the FZU staff photo competition in 2021 became a micrograph by…
