A FeNiMnC alloy with strain glass transition

Recent experimental and theoretical investigations suggested that doping sufficient point defects into a normal ferroelastic/martensitic alloy systems could lead to a frozen disordered state of local lattice strains (nanomartensite domains), thereby suppressing the long-range strain-ordering martens...
