The obtained elastic and phonon dispersion curves for the austenite and martensite phases agree well with available the- oretical and experimental results. The isotropic elastic moduli are also predicted along with the polycrystalline aggregate properties including the bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young＇s modulus, and Poisson＇s ratio. The Pugh ratio indicates that Ni2FeGa shows ductility, especially the austenite phase, which is consistent with the experimental results. The Debye tem- peratures of the Ni2FeGa in the austenite and martensite phases are 344 K and 392 K, respectively. It is predicted that the magnetoelastic coefficient is -5.3 x 10^6 J/m3 and magnetostriction coefficient is between 135 and 55 ppm in the Ni2FeGa austenite phase.展开更多

The partial substitution of Ni by Cu reduces the martensitic transformation temperature, but has little influence on the Curie temperature of austenite. Comparatively, the martensitic transformation temperature increases and the Curie temperature of austenite decreases with the partial replacement of Mn or In by Cu. The magnetization difference between the austenite phase and the martensite phase reaches 70 emu/g in Mn50Ni39Cu1In10; a field-induced martensite-to-austenite transition is observed in this alloy.展开更多
