Abstract
The formation of a twin structure in an alloy can occur in plastic deformation, in subsequent annealing, and as a result of a martensitic transformation. Martensitic transformations that occur in cooling of alloys whose structure includes Hume-Rothery phases are often of a thermoelastic nature and finish with formation of martensite of a twin type. It is of interest to determine the parameter of the twin structure, in particular, the mean width of the first-order twins, and establish its relationship with the properties of the martensite phase in Mn−Ni−Ti alloys.
