Abstract: Abstract The polycrystalline Cu-13.0Al-7.7Mn-0.6Cr cast alloy consists of the Heusler L21 (Cu2AlMn) parent and the disordered body-centered cubic A2(Cr) precipitate due to bcc phase separation. These two phases are completely coherent. When annealing cast alloy,… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract We demonstrate excellent superelasticity and giant elastocaloric effect in a directionally solidified Co50.7V33.3Ga16 alloy. Owing to the formation of [001]A preferentially oriented columnar grains, the as-grown alloy displays nearly perfect superelastic behaviors with fully… read more here.
