Objectives : This course describes the methods for determining the orientation density function (ODF) characterizing the texture of polycrystals. It will then be shown that the knowledge of the ODF enables the prediction a number of physical properties of materials. |
||||||
Pre-requirements : Basic knowledge of materials and crystalline structures, crystallography and crystallographic calculations |

Educational content of the course 1. Texture and determination of texture • Recalls of crystallography, direct and reciprocal lattice, crystallographic calculations with tensor. • Orientations, Orientation Density Function, pole density, pole figures, measurements of pole figures, the techniques of RX measurement • Individual orientation measurements. 2. Harmonic method of texture analysis Mathematical principles of the method, taking into account the symmetries, calculation and representation of the orientation density function, calculation of the orientation density function from individual orientations 3. Physical properties and calculation of average values Averaging elastic constants of a polycrystal by methods Voigt, Reuss and Hill Thermal expansion, magnetic properties 4. Models of polycrystalline plasticity Various models of polycrystalline plasticity, field rotations and changes in texture, texture formation during a particular process, texture processing during phase transformations 5. TD will be partially performed on the software JTEX |
