Abstract
The experimental facts on the stabilisation of martensite in copper ba se shape memory alloys, of interest to the scientific investigator and the practical alloy processor and user are reported. Factors that hav e an influence on stabilisation are considered in this respect. The me chanisms proposed in the literature to explain stabilisation are criti cally examined.
