Nature of the effect of magnetic fields on the starting temperature of martensitic transformation in iron alloys

The effect of a magnetic field on martensitic transformations, which is satisfactorily described by the Krivoglaz–Sadovskii formula, has been analyzed taking into account the nonequilibrium of the martensitic transformation, the possible adiabatic conditions, and the magnetostriction of the paraprocess in ferromagnetic austenite.
