27 Summary We predict that indrect site-occupation occurs in some of the off- stoichiometric and Fe/Co/Cu doped Ni 2 MnGa alloys. The general T M ~C′ correlation works for some of the alloys for which the T M ~e/a correlation fails. However, there are several cases where both the general T M ~C′ and T M ~e/a correlations break down. We present a feasible approach to study the 5-layer modulated (5M) martensitic structure of Ni 2 MnGa-based alloy using first-principles methods. By using this approach, the 5M martensitic structure of Ni 2 MnGa is reasonably reproduced and the Al/Fe-doping effects are predicted.
