Transformation path between different phases of Ni2MnGa alloy has been investigated using first-principle electronic structure calculations. We used the projector-augmented wave method for the calculations of total energies and stresses along the transformation paths. These include transformation from austenite (A) to nonmodulated tetragonal martensite (NM), transformation from modulated martensites (10 M and 14 M) to NM martensite, as well as transformation between adjacent twin variants of NM phase. All transformations are induced by applying external shear strain. The results show the same barrier equal to 0.4 mRy/atom for A→NM transformation, 10M→NM transformation and NM twin reorientation whereas 14M→NM transformation exhibits smaller barrier equal to 0.25 mRy/atom. Calculated lower barrier well corresponds to experimental finding that the transformation from 10M to NM always proceeds via intermediate 14M phase.
