Abstract
Experimental data are presented for precise measurements of longitudinal ultrasonic wave propagation rate in single-crystal germanium and polycrystalline nickel. With these materials as examples the existence of ambiguity is demonstrated in values of elastic characteristics in successive cycles of thermal exposure, i.e., temperature ranges in which the material does not undergo phase transformation.
It is suggested that the ambiguity of mechanical properties of the materials is due to possible variations in the distribution of energy between the lattice framework and the electron subsystem of atoms.
