Strain glass is a new strain state discovered recently in ferroelastic systems that is
characterized by nanoscale martensitic domains formed through a freezing transition. These …

Cluster-spin glass and ferroelectric relaxors have been observed in defect-containing
ferromagnetic systems and ferroelectric systems, respectively. However, it is unclear …

We systematically investigated the variation in transition behavior and physical properties
over a wide excess Ni (acting as defect) concentration range (x= 0–2.5) in Ti 50− x Ni 50+ x …

We have studied the effect of disorder on the martensitic transformation (MT), especially on
the hysteretic behavior of Ti-Nb-O alloy. This system allows arbitrary tuning of the amount of …

A quasi-spin Ising model of ferroelastic phase transition is developed and employed to
perform atomic-scale Monte Carlo simulation of thermoelastic martensitic transformation …

Strain glass is a frozen disordered strain state with local strain order manifested by nano-
sized strain domains, which is formed as a result of doping sufficient point defects into the …

Structural glasses are characterized by the loss of long-range translational and rotational
symmetry. In the last two decades, however, it has been discovered that materials that …

We demonstrate that a strain pseudospin model for martensitic alloys predicts a glass phase
in the presence of disorder, consistent with recent experiments on binary and ternary alloys …

Cemented carbides are hard materials used for the fabrication of cutting tools. They consist
of hard micron or sub-micron carbide grains held together in a matrix of a tough metallic …

The nature of martensitic phase transitions and its modification as a function of composition
and application of magnetic field have been studied in detail for Ni 40 Co 10 Mn 40 Sn 10-x …
