The steady state fraction of high angle grain boundaries is between 60 % to 80 %. At the lowest temperature used the 'grain size' is only a factor of 1.2 larger than the subgrain size. The shear texture is characterised by two components, {100}<100> (cube) and {110}<100> (Goss) increasing with strain to an almost constant strength. The intensity of Goss increases with temperature, while that of the cube decreases independent of the initial orientation. Ductilisation of NiAl seems to be an inherent problem due to a high plastic anisotropy. However, as discussed, under certain conditions grain refinement may help to ductilise the material. This has to be proven by further experiments.enNickelaluminiumlegierungIntermetallische VerbindungTorsionsbeanspruchungVerformungdynamische RekristallisationScherbeanspruchungSpannungs-Dehnungs-VerhaltenTemperatureinflußWürfellageGoss-TexturStreckbarkeitKornfeinungMikrostruktur620669Grain refinement and texture formation in torsion deformed NiAlKornfeinen und Texturbildung in torsionsverformtem Nickelaluminidjournal article
