C ONCLUSION n this work, the microstructure modification of a pseudoelastic equiatomic NiTi alloy was investigated by means of XRD diffraction on tensile dog-bone specimens using a non standard mini-tensile machine. Following this procedure, it was possible to obtain the diffraction spectra under imposed deformations. The measured spectra were I
