Numerical methods are used to solve the nonlinear equations of the Ginzburg-Landau type describing the superconductivity of the twinning plane in tin and niobium. The shape of the field-temperature phase diagram is determined and is found to be in good agreement with the available experimental data. The nature of the change in the phase diagram is tracked as the Ginzburg-Landau parameter is increased. The basic properties are determined for superconductivity localized at the twinning plane.
