Analysis of fragmentation of deformation in $\mathrm{Ni}_3\mathrm{Ge}$ single crystals

The strain distribution on two faces of $\mathrm{Ni}_3\mathrm{Ge}$ single crystals compressed to a strain $\varepsilon = 14,16\%$ at $T=77.673$ K was studied by the grid method. It is shown that temperature has a significant effect on the strain distribution. Fragmentation of local strain due to shape change in specimens during active loading was established by the method of main components.
