A Simple Spin Glass Perspective on Martensitic Shape-memory Alloys

arXiv:0801.2188 · doi:10.1088/0953-8984/20/30/304213

Abstract

A brief qualitative mapping is given between austenite, tweed and twinned phases of martensite alloys and corresponding paramagnetic, spin glass and periodic phases in spin glass alloys.

This paper is dedicated to John Pendry in celebration of his 65th birthday. It has been accepted for a special issue of J.Phys.CM. This version corrects a typo, includes a new recent reference and indicates an alternative formulation for 3D
