The purpose of the proposed research is to develop models for prediction        of microstructure and transformation temperature for materials that             undergo phase changes under stress.  As an integral part of this                research, the theoretical model will be checked experimentally.  The            research will provide fundamental knowledge for present and future              applications of materials which change phase.  The behavior of these            materials under stress plays a central role in the transformation               toughening of ceramics, the optimization of ferroelectrics in                   hydrophones and the potential use of shape-memory materials.  The               proposed research has a great potential for providing a better                  understanding of microstructural effects and new discoveries in a               technologically important class of materials.
