Abstract

A so-called “Vector Method” for the texture analysis of cubic materials was presented for the first time at this conference in 1976. Since then this method has been refined and applied successfully to non cubic-materials. It is shown in this paper that the Vector Method provides several advantages over series methods of texture analysis, the most important of which being the relatively small amount of experimental data which are needed for the determination of the entire crystallite orientation distribution.
