“…The 00 lattice parameters and the value of y in Wyckoff position 4c are highly sensitive to changes in stoichiometry. While the unit-cell dimensions have been measured by various authors at different levels of solute content (Ahmed & Rack, 1996;Bagariatskii et al, 1958;Baker & Sutton, 1969;Banumathy et al, 2009;Brown et al, 1964;Cremasco et al, 2011;Dobromyslov & Elkin, 2006;D'yakonova et al, 2007;Jepson et al, 1970;Kim et al, 2006;Moffat & Larbalestier, 1988;Morniroli & Gantois, 1973;Nyayadhish et al, 2008), only limited experimental data are available in the literature on the composition-dependent atom positions on the (002) 00 plane, described by the parameter y (Banumathy et al, 2009;Brown et al, 1964). These atom positions may have influence in two ways: (i) on the selection of twin planes and habit planes separating the martensitic variants and the parent -martensite volumes, respectively, and (ii) on the mechanical deformation behaviour of 00 .…”
