Which outcome occurs when a shape-memory alloy undergoes an austenite-martensite phase transition under load?

💡 Explanation

When undergoing an austenite-martensite phase transition under load, a shape-memory alloy experiences deformation because the crystalline structure changes, absorbing energy. Therefore temporary shape change and energy dissipation result, rather than cracking, elongation, or heating which involve different deformation mechanisms at varying temperatures.
