Abstract

The concept of fcc fiber texture is examined in the context of Rodrigues-Frank (R-F) representations. Using fiber texture in thin films as the basis of our analysis, it is shown that this approach when combined with grain specific determination of crystallographic orientation provides a useful means of detecting a number of texture components with relatively small grain sampling densities. The application of R-F representations is also shown to be a useful methodology to couple grain boundary structure information with microtexture data.
