Abstract
In this article, it has been shown that the process of reconfiguration of the crystal defects system noticeably contributes to the width of the stress–strain and strain–temperature hysteresis loops taken during the stress- and temperature-induced martensitic transformations of the shape memory alloys. It has been demonstrated that the contribution of the defects system to the hysteresis width strongly depends on the alloy temperature and the transformation cycle duration. It has been shown that the hysteresis effect can be observed not only in the course of the first-order phase transition of martensitic type, but also in the course of the gradual deformation of crystal lattice. The obtained results are applicable to the ferroelastic phase transitions in the different crystalline solids.
