have been obtained. The values found in the martensitic phase have been compared to data avalaible for the high-temperature bcc

-phase in the same alloy system. The velocity surfaces in the corresponding crystallographic directions of both phases have also been computed at different temperatures. It has been shown that the mechanical stability of the lattice for some particular distortions decreases as the transformation temperature is approached in both the martensitic as well as in the

phase. |
