In-situ 3DXRD/DCT and Topotomography methods for the martensite M18R phase characterization

The two mains points of this proposal are in one hand to focus on coupling in-situ 3DXRD/DCT and Topotomography methods to index the martensite M18R phase and to link the behavior of the grains to the microstructural environment of the SMA (size and shape of the grains, shape of the grain boundary, neighborhood...) and in other hands to test the new algorithms for DCT grain reconstruction to improve the grain morphology and reveal orientation and strain gradients within the grain.
