Abstract

Results are reported about the pseudoelastic cycles β-martensite obtained by compression of β Cu-Zn-Al single crystals with electronic concentration 1.52. Stress-strain curves at different temperatures and in situ observations were carried out. The results are compared with those obtained from tension test.
