DESCRIPTION:Martensitic transformation is a shear-dominant\, lattice disto
 rtive and diffusionless solid-solid transformation occurring by nucleation
  and growth. Shape memory alloy exhibits a martensite microstructure\, whi
 ch is a complex pattern of martensitic domains. &nbsp\;In this study\, the
  character of the interfaces between the martensite domains\, dynamics of 
 the formation of the microstructure and the emergence of power-law in the 
 domain size distribution are investigated by various recent microscopy tec
 hniques in shape memory alloys. The experimental results are analyzed in t
 he framework of the nonlinear elasticity theory of the microstructure whic
 h was founded by Ball and James\, to bridge the theory and experiment and 
 to elucidate underlying problems to be solved.&nbsp\;   <br><br><br><br><b
