Quenching treatments or high-strain-rate compression along the 〈100〉 crystal axes induce a martensitic transformation in the compound NiAl containing nickel in excess of stoichiometry. The observations are consistent with the theory of β-phase compounds and the predictions of martensitic shear in these compounds.
