Abstract

This contribution surveys menagerie of models for twinning-like microstructure and its evolution in crystallic alloys exhibiting shape-memory effects. Various levels of description of microstructure are distinguished, as well as various evolutionar mechanisms (iso- or aniso-thermal, viscous or/and plastic).
