S. Kajiwara et al., ATHERMAL AND ISOTHERMAL MARTENSITIC TRANSFORMATIONS INDUCED AT ROOM-TEMPERATURE BY ULTRA-HIGH MAGNETIC-FIELD, Journal de physique. IV, 7(C5), 1997, pp. 377-382
Effects of ultra high magnetic field of both pulse and steady types on
martensitic transformation have been studied, using Fe-Ni-Mn, Fe-Ni-M
n-C alloys with the supplemental tests on Fe-Ni-C and Fe-Ni-Co-Ti allo
ys. It is found that the martensitic transformation is induced at room
temperature not only athermally but also isothermally either by pulse
magnetic field or by steady magnetic field for Fe-Ni-Mn and Fe-Ni-Mn-
C alloys. This fact is in sharp contrast with that no martensite is in
duced by ultra high magnetic field for Fe-Ni-C and Fe-Ni-Co-Ti alloys.
